That poses a problem.

Would an inlined model or an mpd posted to the group help?? I know people
would have to download an mpd to run it through file splitter, and I'm not
sure exactly what an inlined model is, but its a suggestion. Or a few
posts by the same person giving each model, and denoting which post is the
main model. Afterall, will this group be browsed? I would think it would
be accessed more often by links from www.ldraw.org and lugnet...
