  Re: Color chart
 
(...) I keep thinking about making a color chart. The problem is the colors I only have a handfull of examples of, and especially those which the only example is an awkward piece. I think we should press LD to make it easy for us and release a (...) (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.faq)
