    motivation? —Santeri Piippo
   Hi guys - I have to say right now I'm losing motivation for my parts authoring job here. There is lots of other things to do as well and parts authoring does not at all get me the... respect(?) I'd need. But seriously. Last year I got tens of parts (...) (14 years ago, 5-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: motivation? —Michael Heidemann
     (...) I really knows what you are talking about. But nobody in the world can motivate you if you lost interest (Some also very good guys have stopped their working in the past). You have at least two fans (you mentioned them) for your work and your (...) (14 years ago, 5-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: motivation? —Santeri Piippo
     (...) Maybe it'd be possible to have some kind of download counters to the part pages on the parts tracker as well? -Santeri (14 years ago, 5-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: motivation? —Michael Heidemann
     (...) I don't think, but better you ask the PT-Admin. Personally I love all your bionicle parts as I know that they are the most difficult to build in LDraw. I am dreaming of a bionicle figure to animate in LD4DStudio or similar application. cu (...) (14 years ago, 6-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: motivation? —Timothy Gould
     (...) I certainly feel thankful for your parts and make an effort to thank all part authors whenever I blog or write about LDraw. I'm even in discussions with someone about making an 'official' blurb and logo for this very reason. One thing to (...) (14 years ago, 5-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: motivation? —Philippe Hurbain
     Like Mike I also know how you feel. Sometimes you just have the impression of emptying the sea with a spoon: so many parts to do... But when I see the many buildings instructions here and there (especially all the NXT books) I realize that the work (...) (14 years ago, 6-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: motivation? —Santeri Piippo
     OK I guess I've given wrong words in my post above. I wish I could edit them. Especially "respect" was all wrong, even with the question mark. I guess I lost the fun part of it for a while but now that I took and gave the Cordak housing one more (...) (14 years ago, 6-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: motivation? —Michael Heidemann
     (...) Great news! I also have from time to time a 'burnout', but then I have an idea or see a part that I find not to difficult to build and during the build process then I am happy again. FIRST THERE IS A BLANK SCREEN - LATER THERE IS A PART! It is (...) (14 years ago, 11-May-10, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: motivation? —Reuben Pearse
     Hi, I'd just like to acknowledge the hard work of the people putting the parts together. Without the parts you can't create the models...etc...etc I guess it's hard work keeping up with Lego as they are constantly churning out new parts. I've had (...)

        Re: motivation? —Allen Smith
   (...) Regretfully, part authors don't get a lot of glory. But please don't ever feel unappreciated. LDraw would be nothing without you folks. I've never authored a part, but every time a new library update is released, I look through the new (...) (14 years ago, 11-May-10, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
