Ah, incandescent light. I use incandescent, fluorescent and halogen. Yeah, I get it real bright. Either way, that picture is the result of poor lighting. I actually bought a surf shack because I thought it had an orange plate. It looked orange in (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) My digital camera takes quite nice pictures with flash, of course it took even better pictures when I added a slave flash. That picture actually looked more to me like it was taken using room lights only (incandescent lights are very yellow). (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

Thanks to everyone for their comments regarding my explanation of how to implement DCC into LEGO trains. (URL) on the comments received, I have updated the instructions and highlighted the changes to the text in RED. These changes include: - small (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Parse. See: (URL) note the v.intr. definition. "did not parse" == "I didn't understand what you were saying" either because you made a grammatical or transcription error that interfered with deriving meaning, or because your sentence was too (...)

(...) It's a great idea. If you're impure. :-) Purists (and I'm mostly in this camp) like to see what they can do without using non LEGO things. But there's nothing wrong with your suggestion. (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

You could always "accidentally" stick a MegaBlock plate back there. It would be obscured from view and I don't think they have markings on the studs, but maybe they do. (I don't use MB, so I wouldn't know). I know Tyco had blank studs, but their (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

It is not painted. I took some pictures and they turned out like that as well. You need to use all natural lighting and turn off the flash when photographing Lego. The flash changes the color due to the reflection, as well as the poor color digital (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

I don't think it is the lighting. Usually you can recover the colors by adjusting settings for the picture in a program like Photoshop or even Microsoft Photo Editor. I did not succeed in doing so, so my guess is this person PAINTED the tracks (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hmmm, we may be running into the limit of lego tolerances here. When I tried the assembly, it was clearly just the letters on top of the studs that kept it from working perfectly. In fact, it does actually hold together, and works just as I (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
