Yes, that's a hard problem. I really would like numbers, but have yet to
find an easy way to do good-looking numbers and have them positioned well.

I agree- but MLCAD doesn't easily do this. Would LDraw be better?

On anything but a really large monitor, you have to both click *and* scroll
for these instructions. What's worse, you have to scroll back up to click
the link for the next page. Ew! I definitely have to improve that.

Good point- the concept of a "set" was a key focus of the contest last year,
but not nearly so much this year.
Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions. I don't know exactly what I'll
implement, but I do appreciate the comments from everyone.
BTW, Paul- your site was an early inspiration (4 years ago, perhaps?) for me
getting started on doing a Lego site. Thanks for that too!
