the chair-y room is indeed the bridge.  It's not a very showy room since
passengers don't go there.  I wanted it to be small and efficient.
Thanks, I'm glad you like the chairs, I am really happy with them.  I
actually spent a few hours making them and choosing the crew outfits.

I love elevators, especially working ones... I want to add motors to my next
capship... It just wasn't really justified here tho.

cool  :)   I wasn't sure if anyone would dig that, but I like it a lot... so
there it is.  It was actually inspired by the wall of a 1960's era parking
garage in downtown Milwaukee.  It kinda has that wacky retro look.

thanks... I look forward to making more :)

nope, just a digicam I am borrowing from someone to compare it with others I
have tried.  I guarantee the Lego cam cannot do those types of pictures.  It
does have a good very close zoom however... which is important for Lego pics.
I have tried to use it to capture images into Corel Photopaint and Adobe
Photoshop, but neither worked.  The option seemed to be available under
"import" but nothing happened.  Perhaps I am doing something wrong? I dunno.

cheers!
