(...) I agree with the elimination of excess but I disagree with a reduction in part quality simply because it is "too large" (...) I agree again. The point I was trying to make is size concerns should not be the only reason to redo a quality[1] (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I agree with Thomas (and Orion, I think - although from his post, I'm not sure he looked at your reduced-size file) -- keep the original. If you are concerned about file size, you could try reducing the number of decimal places on your (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I have to strongly disagree with this. If a file can be done just as well with fewer bytes, that's a good thing. Good for downloading, good for maintaining the part, good for storing the parts library. (...) I won't argue with your figures, I (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) You are right, that is no longer a problem. And the CPU(s) on any machine should render a 200k file as fast as a 10k file. The only aspect could be the up- and download time. But for a "perfect" part we shouldn't waste a thought on this. CU (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) If it's not broke why fix it? I think the one on the PT is just fine. The file size concern have gotten entirly out of hand. Let's do some math: Peeron has 3628 out of 5589 (64%) sets invertoried for a total of 8062 parts (this includes Moved (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Actually, I thought that all the radar dishes were supposed to be renamed to "Round Dish. . ." (as indeed several on the Parts Tracker are); on the other hand, a name fix for 4740 has not been submitted to the Tracker, and the radar dishes (...)

(...) OK, I have to agree with Niels now, but then I plead for all dishes that are now called Space Radar Dish to be renamed to Dish and put in the keyword "space" (for you spacers out there :-) Jaco (21 years ago, 30-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) It is not a space-specific part, it's used in town a lot, too. The name 'Dish 2 x 2' is better, because it says exactly what it is: a 2 x 2 dish, no more, no less. The keywords contain a reference to space and radar, so searching with keywords (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

I was looking for the small 2 x 2 space radar dish, but did not find it in the Space categorie. Why has the description changed for this part to this: 0 Dish 2 x 2 0 Name: 4740.dat It was Space Radar Dish 2 x 2, which is IMHO better? Jaco (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) These two numbers (40391 & 40392) are the small s-curved neck/tail part. I opened one to look into it. So the four numbers above (40376 - 40379) get a higher chance to be the other neck/tail parts and the head. CU Bernd (21 years ago, 27-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

(...) These are pretty complex parts so I agree. I have, in the past, offered compensation to parts authors for creating parts I needed created.
