  Re: LEGO Factory impressions
 
(...) Being a minimalist, the first model I uploaded was a single piece priced at $3.99. It came with 77 spare pieces. I find that reasonable for a custom set. (URL) I captured the S@H screen here: (URL) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Hmm. If you dig around in the page source for the model pop-ups, you can find the lxf file: (URL) the thumbnail: (URL) course, an URL that goes right to the model would be a lot nicer. Marc Nelson Jr. (URL) Marc's Creations>> (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO Factory impressions
 
(...) And that is a feature we really need, at least at some point. How else can we talk about stuff (except by asking people to search by name?) More importantly, how else are we going to publicise our models and drive incremental sales into the (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)  
 
  Re: LEGO Factory impressions
 
(...) Well, not necessarily. My Railroad Crossing (rats, it seems that there are no URLs for individual models, so I can't point you directly to it) model uses parts from all five bricksets, yet the cost is $18.95. So I don't think you're buying (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: How to rotate a part in LDD (Mac)?
 
(...) Well, there's no reason they couldn't have it both ways; add keys to move the pieces in X and Z after it's placed (in addition to the existing Y movement), and also to rotate it. Then you could move/rotate the piece while it's clinging to the (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I'm guessing they dont want 'Lenny shot' photos. (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LEGO Factory impressions
 
(...) Yes, this is probably the kind of system that Jake prompted us to imagine when he asked us to ponder where this system might be 6-10 years down the road (provided it is sucessful). As you brilliantly put it, in the "World of next Thursday." I (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)  
 
  Re: Stumped already (LDD 1.4)
 
(...) You got docs with your version? I couldn't find any docs with the LDD that was installed on my Mac. Documentation would be nice. Sure I wouldn't read it first, but I would read it. Chris (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)
 
  New LEGO Store in Portland, OR
 
Yes! Finally! Now I get to be as poor as everybody else who lives within easy commuting distance of a LEGO Store. The Portland (Oregon) store just opened in Washington Square, near Meier & Frank, and it's very nice. I slipped in before it was (...)

  Re: LEGO Factory Terms Of Service
 
(...) You actually read that stuff? ;) (...) That is weird. I bet they just don't want any model that could be interpreted as representing a real person, who might then sue them. (...) Well, that's good — perhaps that answers the question about (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: How to rotate a part in LDD (Mac)?
 
(...) Thanks for the answer Eric and thanks for asking the question Joe. However, I am going to be a bit annoying here (no surprise really). This clinging-part thing is a bad metaphor because the "page up" and "page down" keys don't work on the (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

  LEGO Factory Terms Of Service
 
Some weird stuff in here... "Your model must not show human beings"? Do they mean actual, living persons, or any generic human figure? Is this some sort of Islamic thing?
