Thanks for the feedback Chris. I'd be interested to see scans of the bricks
that you described. If you could either email them to me directly or send
me a link, then I'll take a look and update my info as appropriate.
I have a load of stuff (slopes mostly) to rephotograph with my new macro
capable camera, so hope to add similar levels of detail for those shortly.
If there is a particularly hot topic (ie 2x2 round brick), then I would be
willing to document and photograph the variations found by the group and put
them online in a similar format.
Cheers
SteveScott
