I agree that the log bricks create a "neat" effect. For those who are reading
along, here is a great example of what Stefan is talking about:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/J-2/TCLTC/Buildings/biggerbrownbuilding1.jpg
Even thought the color of the frame and the facade are the same color, the
indentation of the log brick on end creates a shadow between the two. If
regular brick were used, the surface would appear too flat to the eye and one's
mind wouldn't "buy" it as much (if that makes any sense).
Thanks for the kind words, Stefan!
