That way, people can see which parts are in the pipeline. Besides, people can (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

So I was assuming that those parts had been submitted without having been posted, and that this still goes on. (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Your parts are commonly related to minifigs, and I rarely use them. Besides, your parts are nearly always perfect (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
