  Re: Stickers
 
Where did you download these designs from? Did you create them yourself? I didn't see them on either Kevin or Anthony's sites. I just want to thank the person who has been copying/using my designs. -Kyle (...) (23 years ago, 23-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Stickers
 
(...) Excellent work! I like those stickers. I've seen a lot of these on Lugnet and I'm interested in how these are made. Do you use a high Dpi printer with sticker sheets? Just my two brickz... <<_Matt Hein_>> Lugnet Member No. 1112 (23 years ago, 23-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

I'm not anti-story by any means. And quelching creativity is the last thing I'd ever want to do! From casual observation it appeared that the growing amount of stories might warrant a new group. For example, the growing amount of MECHA in (...) (23 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Is lugnet.castle the place for stories?
 
(...) Well, it's not that I dislike stories. Far from it. It's merely that in the Lego world it tends to be that a creation inspires a relating story. Hence, I might build X, and create a backstory to enhance it. That's great; I'm all for it. But (...) (23 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)
