The web site looks great. I really enjoy the layout of it. The only problem i had was that it was extremely slow loading for the first time. But then worked o.k. I just hope people will wait for the pages to load and not leave. But other than that (...) (22 years ago, 28-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

Everything looks great. I can't believe you put that ugly truck on the home page 8-} I had a couple navigation problems. After clicking on a link from the index2 page then clicking the browser back button, I was usually sent back to the initial page (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

A single 233MHz PII would only be a stop-gap, at best. Now a cluster of 233PIIs... I think we should farm out the rendering to a custom PC screensaver, installed on the high-bandwidth-connected PCs of thousands of AFOLs. :) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

I think it could be possible if we were running our own server. Though I don't believe POVray supports command line, it's little buddy l3p does. I don't think a 233MHz would be able to handle the eventual bandwidth this would create. If any of you (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

Every now and then I wish there were a web server where I could paste in an LDraw (.dat or .ldr) file (or a URL to such a file) and get a 3D rendering. Occasionally I search the web to see if anyone has done such a thing. As of yesterday, I still (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

Oh, that's sooo easy! Too easy! Should be able to get pretty small with a micromotor and 9v battery box. Even smaller if you juryrig a few button batteries into it.

Here's an interesting idea for Brian. It's a way to make a truck that can stay on the road. This is the only picture I see: (URL) put metal under the road plates (like washers) and just use a couple magnets to steer the truck. I'm not sure if two (...)
