  OMR Filenaming Standard Change?
 
In some recent discussion with Ryan Dennett on creating some resources for the OMR, he brought up what he felt was a discrepancy in the file naming convention.

  Re: Exploration Ship
 
(...) Thanks Joseph, I actually did make the model in real life and then made it in MLCAD (I didn't take any real pictures with a camera).

  Re: SW9 model
 
Oh man Larry I hope you did not have to type those instructions in because my LDraw program is broken (might be from that virus in my floppy).

  Re: BMP2DAT Re: Painted baseplates
 
(...) Sounds like an awesome idea. I've tried to do this manually, by BMP2DAT'ing an image, and then constructing the tri's and quads over top of the raster image, but it's still a huge pain. You *could* skip the BMP2DAT aspect, and just display the (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad)
