Greetings!  I have completed the first draft of a new Duplo Printed Bricks
database and have posted it to one of my member pages here at LUGNET.
Here's the address:

http://www.lugnet.com/duplo/~250/printedbricks

This database was based on both bricks that I own and other information
posted by Maggie, Scott and Heather over the last few days.

Primarily I'm interested in the 1x2 sized bricks.  However, I've found that
there are some bricks of other sizes that have some pretty neat designs such
as the 2x4 Apple & Sack one.  I think that for now I'm going to include
these "odd" sized bricks in the database.

I also added some of the Promotional Bricks to the database since they are
Duplo sized.  I know that there are more of these to be added along with
other regular printed bricks I may not have logged yet.

As of right now I've cataloged 63 unique designs (not counting the same
design rendered in different colors such as the Telephone brick) and 68
different design/brick/color combinations.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions for additions or see any
typo's or other factual mistakes.  I'm definitely interested in any help
that anyone else can provide for this project.

This is just my first draft of the database.  I hope to incorporate pictures
into it soon.  I will be taking pictures/scans of my inventory for this
purpose.  I'd also like to chop up the pictures previously posted by Maggie
& Scott (if that's okay with y'all) for those Bricks that I don't currently
have myself.  I'm going to then throw them out on a server somewhere and
link to them from this database page.

That's all for now.  I'll be poking around with this some more after the
weekend.  For the next few days however I have to put aside my LEGO
interests in favor of a 3 Day Hard Rock festival in Youngstown, OH featuring
34 bands.  Not everything can be about The Brick.

Thanks for everyone's help so far.  I hope others find the database useful.
