I don't remember the other one, but here is some feedback on this one: First of all, it looks very nice and it looks like you have got the geometry of the 1x2 brick correct. But I think you would benefit from having either a scan of the face of the element or a copy of the actual element in hand. The three buttons along the right, you have as being square, but they're actually supposed to be circular. The positioning is also a bit off: you have the three buttons taking up the entire vertical face of the brick, but on the real element, there is room for four buttons, with only the top three appearing. That is, it's as if the real element had four buttons, the bottom one being white (i.e. invisible). As far as the decorations on the monitor go, I think parts authors try to get the image as accurate as possible. It's going to be difficult to represent the Danish[1] text on the screen that small, but it should be possible to represent the general flow more accurately, including the visage in the lower right corner. > i also point people to my magnifying glass part. that is now hopefully been > brought up to official level. Definitely an improvement on the magnifying glass! --Todd [1] At least, I *think* it's Danish. The print quality varies widely on this element -- many of the screens are printed blurry. Somewhere I have a really really crisp one, and many of the words are clear. The text is in all caps and includes characters such as Å.
