Hey guys,
It looks good! Thanks for linking VignetteBricks, btw. A couple of suggestions:
Pics. You’ve probably already got this in mind, but I like how some of the
sidebars (e.g. space, castle, adventurers) feature a thumbnail of a recently
posted MOC, that rotates on a relatively regular basis.
FAQ. I suppose I’m old fashioned ;), but in my day we thought of vignettes as
being squares 8x8 or smaller. Your size chart includes sizes and shapes that I
would personally not call vignettes.
Galleries. It’s cool how many you found. I’ll have to go through these in
depth as I think there are some I’ve not seen before. I could probably help you
replace some of the brickshelf id’s with real names if you’d like.
Timeline. I don’t mean to sound overly partisan, and I suspsect that maybe you
were both trying to go out of your way to not sound partisan, but I would think
it’s important to note that my initial vignette posting really sparked other
vignette builders on Classic-Castle first, then this spread to FBTB. It was
really only after that that vignettes took a stronger hold here on Lugnet.
Perhaps I would change “A series of subsequent vignettes are posted.” to “A
series of subsequent vignettes are posted on Lugnet and in other AFOL forums,
including Classic-Castle and FBTB.” Also, in the pre-history, there were other
vignettes outside of the Japanese AFOL community. In particular, I found pics
of great trophies created for the Space room at one of the Brickfests, including
this one by Aaron
Sneary. Frustratingly, Brickshelf is up and down right now, so I can’t find the
others. >:( Also in the prehistory, as you note in the FAQ, the official SW
storyteller sets were technically vignettes, albeit particularly lame and
lifeless ones, IMO.
In addition to my blog, I would also include
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=vignette&stype=fi in the links
page with the title “vignettes on Brickshelf” or something.
