  Re: Proposed changes to MOTM Submission guidelines
 
(...) One minor thing. L3P's default view that most people are used to is equivalent to -cg30,45,0. I really think the latitude of 30 is preferable to the latitude of 45 for most models. --Travis Cobbs (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Improving the PT
 
(...) I disagree with this idea. Fixed parts can have subtle changes to them that may affect the parent part. In other words, part fixes are essentially new parts meant to replace the old parts. -Orion (21 years ago, 21-Nov-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Improving the Parts Tracker experience
 
(...) Or, as an alternative to right-clicking, you can also drag'n'drop part-links to a second browser window. Assuming you have enough space on your screen. For me, dragging tends to be easier to remember dragging than right-clicking. Steve (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
