  Re: Part naming/organization [was: Re: More inventories on peeron.com!]
 
(...) Are you letting me fight my own battles, or throwing me to the wolves? ;) Partsref using LDraw names is no defense for me... (...) And my stance is that partsref uses the data from ldraw. My advantage is that when LDraw changes, it's very easy (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)

(...) Yes, so many nice things to do and so little free time in a day ;-) Regards, Hakan (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

(...) nod, I mean to do something like that one day - I have all the data, just need to compile it... :) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: More inventories on peeron.com!
 
(...) You already have those nice two paragraphs with links to the new added sets and images on your starting page. How about keeping them after making a posting to lugnet? If the lists gets too long, you could move it to another page, like the (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Part naming/organization [was: Re: More inventories on peeron.com!]
 
(...) heh, I agree - except that I can't think of a way to group headgear together... not without using keywords or something... (which is planned, I'll admit). (...) heh, no, not really - just we got tired of the huge pile of sets waiting to be (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Part naming/organization [was: Re: More inventories on peeron.com!]
 
(...) I'll let Steve fight his own battle - but I will point out that partref uses %100 ldraw names... :) (...) Tell me about it. Our current stance on peeron is that we won't create new names for pieces that already have names via ldraw/partsref... (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Part naming/organization [was: Re: More inventories on peeron.com!]
 
(...) And I must mention that, although it is in some ways convenient to be able to find pieces by theme, things get messy when themes are used in the hierarchy. For example, consider the Castle section of Partsref, and these "Castle *" parts. There (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: More inventories on peeron.com!
 
(...) You could do what I did with partsref, and put patterned elements on a separate page. At least when you've got the plain version of the same part. Actually, you wouldn't put it on a separate page, you'd just remove it from the thumbnails page, (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: More inventories on peeron.com!
 
(...) OK, good. That was my main concern. (...) OK, good. I agree with most of these, at least sort of. :) (...) I wouldn't change something because just one person says so. Even (especially) if that one person is me. There are a few people who I (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: More inventories on peeron.com!
 
(...) NO. Not at all. I think that Partref is organized very intuitively. And with all of the keyword searches available, the only reason for not finding a part on partref is because the part does not yet have a listing there. I have been using (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
