Was this before or after the additional text was added?--

   Looking for a LEGO set by number?  Try Here!

(That's what comes up at the top if you type in a numeric query.  The "Try
here" part is a link into the sets-DB.)


I did find
the Pause search though. My first impression was change is bad, but I do
not really think it is bad. The news groups get top billing now, and that
is what this is all about. Getting the set data base of the front page
makes it more clear the the data base is associated with Pause. I must
admit that the only thing I use from Pause is the set search, I have no
idea what Pause is. So, if the goal is to make us more "Pause" conscious
then the change is certainly doing that.

Aha, OK, yes, now would be a good time to change the title of the link.
I changed it to say "Database of LEGO Sets", which isn't 100.00% accurate
but should be less confusing.  If you think of something better, please let
me know.  It might even be necessary to raise it another notch in visibility
somehow.


Change scares me,

You're not alone! -- change scares 99% of everyone.
