Thanks for all the nice replies. Im curious, is there an organization or newsgroup for people who design lego towns? Ive been surfing the net, and there seems to be quite a few lego towns. Is there a place to trade secrets and layout ideas, or is (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.town)

I don't mean to assume, but I'm interested in how you did this. Judging by the QT format is it safe to say you used some type of digital video camera (like the every day Hi8 / Digital8 Cameras) and transferred it over firewire to something like (...)
