Hello all. This is my first post not begging for help in the MLCAD group. Basically I just wanted to show off some of the designs I have posted on MOC pages. All of my designs are created with LDraw. Someday I’d love to have the resources to (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !

(...) I'll leave the Mecha critique for those who are more qualified (I, personally, am into trains), but I will offer this bit of advice to you. Don't upload .bmp files. Personally, I won't download them, as I know a lot of people won't, either. (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I do like the mech, and if it's your first major MLCAD design, I'm really impressed, since I know mechs can be a pain to model. (Even if it's not your first major model, I'm still impressed by it. I like the design.) But John's right about the (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Whoops. Sorry about the link. As for the bmp files, I used them because they looked better than jpg files. However MOC pages doesn't allow them anymore anyway, so my latest design, and all my future designs will not be in bmp format. Reloading (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Travis, but it's far from my first major design. It's just the first that I announced here on Lugnet. I'm still finding my way around the new MOC pages posting method, but I see they do allow PNG, so I'll take your advice and try that (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Nice stuff. Yer mecha portfolio rocks. I was wondering btw, what are those pieces beside the part with the chevrons and what is with those inverted slopes as sideburns. They don't look quite right? Does MLCAD mod parts? F (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I suspect the parts next to the chevron tiles are "(URL) Tap 1 x 2 Base>" pieces, which are part of these faucets: (URL) Tap 1 x 2 Assembly with Gray Spout>> I don't know about the other part. Jim (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Hi Fradel. Thanks very much. Both of the parts you're asking about are found in the official parts list downloaded with LDRAW. The first piece I believe you are referring to is just a faucet base without the actual faucet attached. The (...) (17 years ago, 17-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) PNG files are lossless, which means they'll look identical to the BMP files. Taking spartan01.bmp as an example, the BMP file is 1880KB (1.8MB), while a PNG of the same image is 74KB, and the two images are identical on-screen. When I posted (...)
