Kevin, Thank you, first and foremost. BrickShelf is a key part of the community. I apologize for my part in the download spike from FBTB users. Is grabbing one folder download per week excessive? I would accept file/picture size limits. I would not (...) (17 years ago, 20-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
