Pardon, Rene, but I actually have an answer to the original question. (...) I spoke with Kevin Loch at BF today, and he stated he had not seen this thread yet. He told me that the tagging of folders as Avatar is based strictly on the first image in (...) (18 years ago, 26-Aug-06, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general)

(...) Hi Rene, A lot of concerned parties will be at BrickFest right now. I'm sure you'll take your time before deciding on any action but I just thought I'd mention it. Tim (18 years ago, 25-Aug-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)

*BREAKPOINT* - ideally for the entire thread, though neither I'm able to technically lock it, nor I'd force it. But things are getting out of control, once again. The issue "Eric" (sorry for making you a neuter, Eric ;-) seemes to be a pretty (...) (18 years ago, 25-Aug-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Um, how exactly is (URL) directly feedback on what you asked? You asked "P.S.S Could not post to: lugnet.announce.brickshelf", to which Jeff replied "The lugnet.announce.brickshelf group is postable to only by Kevin (and perhaps a few other (...)

(...) The avatar tag gets applied to folders that don't have a Lego image as their first one (alphabetically) IIRC from something Kevin posted on the Zerostuds forum, which appears to have disappeared. Tim (18 years ago, 25-Aug-06, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general, FTX)

most of my purchases have come from new sets and pretty much all of the rest have been at a local second hand toy shop that I go to (they do LEGO by the part and by the set and I am one of their best customers) Right now though I have pretty much (...)

(...) Maybe it's a socio/geographic thing. I live in Chicago so there are dozens of resale shops, and enough affluence that alot of folks just prefer to drop it off for that warm-fuzzy-feeling and tax write off rather than bother with Ebay. I do (...) (18 years ago, 25-Aug-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
