"Uhhhh, okay" is right. #1. I noticed that John and Brian are having fun at the
expense of your lack of a spell- and grammar- check. #2. Now I'm having fun
with everything, including the store story. ;} #3. Although I love your puns on
bricks and plates; however, the other words are bourgeois and boyfriend. #4. It
is a nice building. but for the love of all of us, follow these tips when
updating your building. #4A. When you've finished, unless you're dealing with
sub-sections of something meant to be whole, sort all of your pieces in steps
based on the numeric Y height. (For example, 16, 8, 0, -8, -16, -24, 32,....)
#4B Look at your construct from all angles -- Left or Right, Over, Under, &
3-dimensional. (Your shelves and check-out counter are hanging out of your
floor!) #4C Minifigs--even custom minifigs--can be processed in the middle of
your building code. LDraw only processes 1000 lines of code and your LDAO text
will make more trouble -- and less store -- for you. If you like, I could build
your minifigs (in the workplace!) as you want them or simply show you how its
done. (Note: hands are 22.25 units from the center of the body each. When
sitting, a minifig's legs are 9 units off the surface, but 21 when standing.)
Good luck with your store and SPELLCHECK, SPELLCHECK, SPELLCHECK!
