On the 25th July 1997, James Jessiman passed away due to complications from the
flu. The LDraw Steering Committee would like to commemorate the 10th anniversary
of this sad day with a tribute page to James and his great foundation. We invite
you to send in a picture of a:

"1 4 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3002.dat"

(a red Brick 2x3 for all those who are not CAD nerds). Your contributions will
be collected in a gallery on the site.

If you do not feel comfortable with radiosity or hires-rendering and your images
are usually outputs of MLCad this is not a problem - we accept every kind of
format, sketches, artwork or even photographs but we obviously prefer “LDraws”.
Furthermore we kindly ask you to limit the size to 640x480 pixel. The rest is
entirely up to you – no guidelines, no deadline (though it would be nice having
your tribute by July 25th). Feel free to add a short text to your entry of
LDraw.org's icon. Entries should be sent to the webmasters with the subject
“LDraw - 10th anniversary” by using the following address:

webmaster@#say-no-to-spam#ldraw.org (don't forget to delete the spamblocker)

The SteerCo member's tributes have already been added to the gallery at:

(...) This is a fantastic idea and a very fitting tribute! James passed away just as I was first getting into LDraw, and even though he and I never corresponded directly, I've had a few email contacts with his family in the subsequent decade. (...)
