Hi Kevin,

Can you explain to me why you took my Mobile TV Unit from the "J Small
Vehicles - Modern" category to put it in the "K Large vehicles" category???

In the "How To Enter" section of the Second Annual TOWN Building Contest
webpage, you whote:
Small vehicles, modern (4-6 wide)
Large vehicles (6-8 wide, no bigger)

The front of my truck is 4-wide and the rear is 6-wide.  So I followed your
instructions and put the truck in the small vehicles category, which I
tought was the correct way.

I moved the truck because for most of its length it's 6-wide rather than 4, and
because it has accessories which stick out from the 6-wide section, making
it more than 6-wide overall. The "feel" of it is also of a large vehicle
rather than a small one like a car or motorcycle, which most of the other
small vehicles are.

I also think that it could be something wrong with the buildings
categories...  (as example: D012  VS  E009).
Did I look too soon at the webpage, i.e. before you finish to make all the
changes?

D012, your McDonalds, looked to me as if it covered the full length of the
32-stud baseplate plus overhangs at both ends, which brings it firmly into
the Large category. Maybe the angle of the pictures is misleading me, but
that's what it looks like.

E009 may still be miscategorised. I'm going to contact Kevin Zwicker and
find out exactly how long that building is.

Kevin
