(...) I knew I forgot to mention something! Some of the older scans were actually invalid pictures, so they didn't import cleanly. I still need to go through the ones that were rejected, and import them manually. I just found 8040, and it was one of (...) (19 years ago, 28-Jun-05, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Nice one, but geez, yet another interview with Brendan Powell Smith ;) Just wondering though; is it intended to be a magazine for AFOLs or about AFOLs? If it's the former, there's not a lot in there that we don't know already, and if it's the (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.publish.brickjournal, FTX)
