Becuase sadly when I was creating tutorials/articles for the site I only focused
on the WINDOWS side of the house since I have zero MAC experience. =(
MLCAD is the dominate GUI that users use when using LDraw.

Yes the pages were originally designed and test in IE and no one ever got around
to ever testing them with all the new browsers. When I use IE they look fine
but when I use Firefox they are all over the place.
Guess we still need IE for some thing. =)

The Wiki plan would REALLY help out as I don't have too much time anymore to
develop new articles or update the ones that are on the site. In addition, I
have fallen behind in the technology curve in terms of some of the new software
that is used. For example I don't touch LDLite or the LDD. Don't have a need
for LDLite (MLCAD,L3P,L3PAO, LPUB and POV work for what I use to do) and LDD is
just a horrible ldraw "wanna-be" application and needs way, way, way too much
developing before its any good.
When we have gotten question about LDLite I try to help as much as I can but
typically pass the request to someone who knows more about that application than
me. As the main help desk guy at LDraw I feel this is wrong but at times it's
just too much with everything else I have going on in my life.
LEGO has sadly taken a very back seat in my "car of life". Just last week i
finally got around to unpacking a LEGO box that I had in the garage (where all
the rest of the LEGO is at) to build one of my favoirte models for my den.
Apart from that I while I have LDraw and all the software installed I don't play
around with it anymore. =( Only when a question comes in.
