(...) LOL, this is available at a dozen well-known LEGO websites including Peeron. Now you can add those RGBs to your 'program'. It seems silly to me to create a LEGO mosaic... using colors that are far from the colors of the corresponding LEGO (...) (21 years ago, 12-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

(...) hi Maarten, you bring up a good point. it never occurred to me that weight would also be an issue. this now becomes a weight vs. part count efficiency problem. i'm going to have to go find the weight of the parts i'm using and do some (...) (21 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic)

Also, using a slightly-less-than-t...ally-black shade allows outlines to be drawn with RGB(0,0,0) and still show up (at least, somewhat). And with shading (...)

Bob, One more suggestion: Because there is no "brickwall"-structure in your MLCad results, it might not be such a bad idea to alternately read lines from left to right and from right to left. In my program I also have something like this: For I = 0 (...) (21 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic)

Tips & tricks: 1) If you decide to convert an image without dithering (e.g. a cartoon character), you may have noticed that a significant part of the image turns (dark) grey (in case this colour is in your list of colours to be used), even if you (...)
