Love, Kevin Salm, TWS Garrison, Ray Sanders, and Ildefonso Junior Zanette, and everyone (...) (23 years ago, 27-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv) !

(...) Peeron.com's image library is excellent. Glad to see new photos added. At the risk of fragmenting the image library too much like partsref, I would like to suggest that some images be placed in different files/folders. For example, all minifig (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

(...) yes, I do realize that the full thumbnail page is way too big... I've been meaning to have it break down to pages... not sure about separating to categories though - I mean, if you're looking for a specific torso, for example, the easiest way (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

(...) Sorry to go off-topic here, but do you think partsref is too fragmented? I realize I'm reading extra meaning into what you wrote, but this is an impression one could get from it... So I'm asking straight out. Steve Christopher! have you backed (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

(...) 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)

(...) 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)

(...) 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)

(...) 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)

Hi, (...) What is the procedure for someone else to add photos and new parts to your db inventory on peeron? I just got a digital camera, and would be willing to photo new parts in MISB sets I inventory. Would I just send you the photo and find the (...)

(...) well, if the part has a partsref number, then it doesn't need a picture, since all parts in partsref have dats. So we only need pictures of parts that are not in partsref. Now, if the part has a number on it, use that, if not, give it an (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)

(...) not sure I understand what you mean though? the "Previous Post" section? if so, then, yes, when we add new pictures, you'll still be able to see the pictures we added last time... perhaps I'm misunderstanding though... :) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
