Maybe I asked you this before, but do you have a standard way of recording
parts which have more than one color?

For example, in AucZILLA, minifig torsos are recorded with up to three
colors:  if there's only one color for the torso, then the body and arms
are that color, and the hands are yellow.  If there are two colors (like
white/blue) the body is the first color, the arms are the second color, and
the hands are yellow.  If there are three colors, the third color is for
the hands.

(I wonder what Todd'd do if TLC made a minifig with mis-matched arms?)

No problem, I won't submit them without LDraw numbers, as far as I can figure
it out.  I do have some inventory entries that are multiple LDRaw pieces, such

standard legs piece, since that's the syntax Partsref needs to find them?  Or
should I split them up, or leave them blank?

We usually leave it blank.  Not the ideal solution, but until someone comes
up with a shortcut for the legs and belt, I think there's no other option. :/

Also: I notice Peeron.com has part numbers for some unLDrawn pieces.  Is there
a list of these somewhere that I can use?

yup.  I just added:

it's longish, and I wish I knew where I found the original list that we
built on... :/

(...) no real standard way - the color in the 'color' column is the base color - what you'd see if you looked inside the torso. Everything else goes in the notes... Not perfect, but I couldn't think of a better way... (24 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Didn't they once with Dragon Masters? I listed one of the DM torsos like this: Red/Blue/Black/Yellow DM Torsos (Flames) meaning: red torso, blue & black arms, yellow hands, and the torso is decorated with DM flame decor (as opposed to the DM (...) (24 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)
