|
| If this doesn't belong in .general, feel free to just direct it to .publish.

| | | | FTX courtesy to NNTP
|
| As more of a newsreader user, incorrectly formatted FTX code on LUGNET has been troubling me lately. Non NNTP users might not realize, but FTX code formatted like the link below is a pain for NNTP users to just click on and be directed to you link (...)

| | | | More lighting ideas...
|
| Hello, all. I've been away from the LUGNET and the camera recently, but now I have it back I've been experimenting with yet more lighting. I've found a very useful lighting technique: lighting from beneath. It can help make pics like this: (URL) (...) (21 years ago, 28-Oct-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)

| (...) Ordering direct from No Starch was fairly painless (so far ;) and it should be here in a week or so according to the email I recieved late last week. I'll be taking it along to the next BUGs meeting if it arrives in time, so there may be an (...) (21 years ago, 27-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.books, lugnet.publish, FTX)

Though as I recall, I'm waiting for something to be finalized from the publisher - I'll check up on that. The Australian distributor ordered very (...)

| (...) Well, based on that, I think Virtual Lego is the one for me. I checked availability here in Australia at the local book shop today. There is one copy in the whole of Australia, and it's SEVENTY NINE DOLLARS!! (about US$55). I ended up ordering (...) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.books, lugnet.publish, FTX)

| I bought a copy yesterday at LegoWorld Zwolle. The price was only 31 Euro's instead of 40 USD + shipping costs. Actually they were all sold out and a new delivery was a bit delayed, but Jaco was kind enough to give me his copy ;-) On my way home by (...)
