P.S.  Next time you (or anyone) does something like this, analyze the logos
and
font Lego uses, as that will make it more realistic.  :)  Also, I'd suggest
printing it out (on photographic paper maybe?) and rescanning it.  That should
eliminate the uniformity of colors that tipped me off.  :)

Using Corel Photopaint, I could easily mess with colors, add fake half-toning,
etc, etc.  I also have 1000+ fonts to match from... My only problem is that I
would have to create hyper-realistic raytraces because I don't have a digital
camera...but then again, backgrounds are much easier to add to raytraces.  I'm
really starting to get interested in faking something :)

(...) Well, you have nothing to fear from me! :) I thought it was a wonderful April Fool's Joke! :) Of course, it makes me wonder why so many were fooled (I was the first to post that I thought it was a hoax). (...) And boy did you ever fool people! (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)
