new to Web-site authoring and have only recently come out of my
Lego Dark Ages so I have a ways to go.

Eric, looks like you're off to a great start!  Since you're soliciting
feedback, I could recommend a couple things (very minor):

- A few smaller-sized thumbnail images on the entry pages to the
  B-Wing and A-Wing models would be nice, to give a sense for what's
  coming up when the text-labeled-links are clicked.

- Since there's no textual descriptions on the .html pages containing
  the closeup images for these models, you could just as well link
  directly to your .jpg files (if geocities allows that and if you're
  not planning on adding more text later)...  That would make the pages
  load more quickly.

- Maybe list the "Front Corner View" first, for people in a hurry -- those
  are usually the view that gives the best overall quick-peek at the model.
  (That front corner view on the LDrawAWingPi.html page, BTW, is splendid!)

- The official set names for the SW sets actually have TM symbols in them,
  and I think this is a first for TLG (at least a rarity).  If you want to
  be 100% accurate on the names, here are details on where the TM's go:

By the way the reason I am posting here is because I am from
Melrose MA and wanted to introduce myself to some locals.

Hey, welcome to the group!  Not many people actively participating in this
one, but someday it'll pick up.  There are a few groups in California, North
Carolina, Ohio, Minnesota, and Colorado which are fairly active.

Say, where is Melrose?  I didn't grow up here so all town names aren't
burned into my head yet, and I don't see it on the map.

Hey, you're the Gonk guy -- cool!

Love those A-Wing & B-Wing models too -- especially the recessed hinges in
the B-Wing -- very slick -- and the picture on the page:

(...) I think I will do this. I origionally didn't have any thumbnail's at all but I really like how it came out on the front page so I will add them soon. (I am in St. Louis on buisness for the rest of the week and the best connection I can get in (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
