| | | | (...) I disagree. Building Instructions (BIs) should be precise and clear steps either in text or images that allow another individual to dulplicate (make an identical) the original model. In the ideal world, the BIs should *AT THE MIN* be of the (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jul-02, to lugnet.inst)

| | | | | (...) Well, I'd say almost the opposite. Firstly, the instructions Lego produce are (for most AFOLs) needlessly laborious in their detail. Megablocks and Shifty/Brick both produce far more compact instructions that do more at each step and they are (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jul-02, to lugnet.inst)

| | | | | | | Yet another 10c from me ... A lot of the time I don't think we really need detailed building instructions. For many models, a few good photos from all angles of the finished product and a few detailed photos of "tricky bits" and "significant (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jul-02, to lugnet.inst)

| | | | | | | | (...) Your assumptions of the audience and what is a BI are different than mine. As I stated before, I want to make sure that the user of my BIs duplicated MY MODEL 100% the same way I did mine. Otherwise, s/he is NOT building MY MODEL but a (...)

THOSE ARE FAKE LEGOS AND SHOULD I WILL NEVER TOUCH THEM OR THEIR BIs... YUK! =) So in my mind there is ONLY 1 BRICK: (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.inst)
