  Re: [ldraw.org] Cover Model
 
(...) That's what I thought when I read your earlier post. It would be very intriguing to see what images people can create, using LDraw as a base tool, but not limited to that. For example, Terry suggested that no text be allowed over the image. I (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  The Bricktionary project (Was: Idea: How starting ... Lego piece naming convention?)
 
Hello everybody, In an earlier post in this thread I stated that I would start to make a list containing the various names for each LEGO part. As many parts have different names in different auctions, programms and inventories it is sometimes hard (...)

  Re: [ldraw.org] Cover Model
 
(...) I'm sure there are lots of people who don't post on lugnet.cad.dat.models. Besides, some people probably have a large backcatalogue of models which can be used.

  Re: [ldraw.org] Cover Model
 
(...) Since people use many other tools than just LDraw and l2p/l3p, it is probably not a good idea to demand a _machine_ friendly explanation of the path from DAT file to finished image. It is actually more important that it is _user_ friendly, if (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
