Hi !

Hi!

after that nice welcome of John, I just state another question. To me
it's more fun to do patterns than parts, so, there will be more
patterns to come. There have been many LEGO sets with stickers in them,
to put them on "composite" parts, consisting of 2-10 standart parts. I
remember some advertisings and so on. I think it would be nice to have
them in the LDraw-programs as well. But what way should they be done?
Just doing stickers, of, lets say, 2 LE so that one could put them on
the models, or as "new, composite" parts? Or both, the "complete parts"
for standart use, the sickers for general use?

There was extensive discussion about this issue, before the L-CAD mailing
list moved to lugnet.cad.dev.  The general thought was that stickers should
be separate 'part files'.  There was some debate about the best way to
model them in LDraw; in 2D, or with depth, and how much depth.  There was
also discussion about how they should be oriented: laying flat, or
positioned so they would fit on the target piece, as shown in the set
instructions.

I would *love* to see some stickers start to appear in the LDraw library.

I would like to hear about that!

I've said enough.

Steve
