(...) Why don't you use #000000 as the edge color? I think that looks OK even against the default black color (LDraw color 0), while the edge lines around the black in you image above are difficult to see. --Travis (16 years ago, 19-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(2 URLs) So, you guys think that models look better with black edges? (16 years ago, 19-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) Depends on the purpose :-) For instructions, the black lines make every part very obvious, while for a nice picture of the model, the softer lines look better (although the contrast in comparison2.jpg is *too* low - you can't see the parts at (...) (16 years ago, 19-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Definitely not! You should hear me and my wife 'quarrel' if a color is blue or green. We have very different perception of that border line... Only ~8% of males (< 1% for females) are red-green 'color blind', but that still means 1 out of 12 (...) (16 years ago, 20-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
