  Re: Please fix the pictures on the bulk order page!
 
Sorry. Since the site is a web page I assumed all they had to do was switch a few images. Apparently the ".asp" ending means it is a bit more advanced than basic html and that fixing the page requires more work than it simple switch of image files. (...)

(...) I don't know that much about programming or even creating websites but, does .asp stuff cache or bookmark?

  LD/Bulk Wish List?
 
Months ago, someone mentioned they were trying to set up a centralized wish list for people to pool their requests for LD. Anybody know if that ever happened, or is still in the works? I'm sure I'm not the only one working on a wish list... <grin> (...) (26 years ago, 25-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego)

  Re: what is the min production run #?
 
(...) Don't tell US, tell Jason Catena (via his website input process) which correlates the data together much more effectively... I'm still hoping he'll decode the somewhat cryptic note I sent him. ++Lar (26 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Who cares about the mundanes? Target them and LD will be a flop. We're the heavy users.
