Good news everyone!
I have now added the sets from 1991 to Technicopedia including 8074, 8810, 8815,
8820, 8838, and 8856.
You’ll notice some other changes as well. Firstly, I have a new logo which is
now rendered in 3D. The logo on the title page is even animated. I didn’t
animate the logos on all the other pages to keep from making a distraction.
The other thing I’ve added is the reason that this update has taken 2 months.
I’ve been teaching myself rendering so, as practice, I have made 3D revolving
animations of all of the sets which are part of Technicopedia and for which I
actually have an Ldraw model. Have fun looking through all the old pages to see
where they have been added!
If people actually like the new animation feature, please feel free to
contribute Ldraw files of any of the other models and I will add more revolving
displays. When I get around to hosting an Ldraw model library, I’ll be happy to
include them there as well.
Let me know what you think!

| (...) Eric. Love the work you've put in so far, and I'd like to help out. If you give me some set numbers for which you don't have LDraw files, I'd be willing to put some time in and draw them up, provided the Peeron instructions scans are available (...)

| I have now added the sets from 1992 to Technicopedia including 8826, 8828, 8836, 8837, 8839, and the great 8868. 8868 was a tremendous amount of work, but I hope you'll agree that it was worth it.
