Hi Rumpelmuck! I think I can see why the snack bar is looking a little squished. You have opened the door on the left side which is sticking out over the edge by about .25 of a stud. I am guessing that you might not have included that extra width when you re-sized the pic?

Close the door just enough so there is no overhang and try it again. It should be fine then. Did you take the screen shot of the beach house with a different program? I noticed the other two GIFs are step pictures from MLCad. I am trying to figure out why the green is so different.

Thanks for letting me know that Brickshelf was up and running again. Here are my very, very humble contributions. Its my last project week of the year next week so hopefully I will be able to provide more input again after that.

Hi!

I'll try the Snack Bar again.

The Beach House was resized with Paint.net and I used the MLCad colour "Light Green" as the original basplate is brighter than the standard green.

Cheers!

Thomas

Hi Thomas, you can send PM messages once you have made 10 post on Eurobricks. One more post and that feature should be available to you. I will try to work on the pictures this weekend.

As promised, here are two revised GIFs based on your BMP files. I also noticed that the chef in the Snack Bar GIF has his hand sticking out over the edge slightly. Because of that and the overhanging door on the left it is hard to tell exactly which dimensions the model has in studs in length or width (which makes it tricky to rescale). It is best to avoid making any unnecessary overhangs when making GIFs but I think this re-scaling comes pretty close. Don't forget to make the XML files for your GIFs. You will need them for any sets that have overhangs so that will fit properly on the BlueBrick grid.

This one is also a bit less fuzzy now.

I just checked peeron concerning the baseplate of the beach house and it has it listed as a standard green. I will see if I can find the exact color somewhere.

Happy building!

EDIT: OK, I just had a look at quite a few

pictures of the beach house using the image finder on google and on Brickshelf, and it really does seem to be a relatively dark green baseplate but it is always hard to tell because of the lighting.

Here is one of the pictures I found.

So perhaps it would be best to change it to standard green in MLCad too, or use the custom color pallet to make a color which you think is closer to the original.

Anybody working on 10199 Winter Toy Shop????

Cheers

Thomas

Those look great! Thanks so much for your contributions. As soon as I have a proper internet connection on Friday (currently using a BlackBerry) I will add them to the index. I don't believe anyone is working on the toyshop. I am looling forward to seeing that! Could you put the car and motorbike in the service station GIF? To prevent the parts library from getting too cluttered we try to only separate the vehicles from the main Gif if there is no room on the baseplate. Thanks again for your great work!

Even more fantastic GIFs! I am clearly not pulling my weight anymore in this thread. Thanks Rapseflaps for these great contributions. I will add them to the index tomorrow evening. The week after next I will finally be able to add contibutions of my own. Right, break is over, back to work. Happy building!

I'll try to update the Service Station until the weekend.

Speaking of the "under construction list", I didn't get around to it on Friday night so I am about to do it now. Another great creation, thanks Rapseflaps! Only one more mad work week to go and I will hopefully be back with a vengeance.

Great job! Sorry for the long delay. This is the first time I have checked since my last post. Did you get my PM Message?

Happy building!

I got your PM. Thanks for all the information. I'm still working on the Toy Shop. Seems more complex as suggested :-(.

I don't know if there is a similar phrase in english, but in Germany we like to say: "Hardly the chipmunk cherish itself!"

I use BlueBrick at home to design my Basement layout.

I am also planning a dream layout

A request: can any of you design 6479 Emergency Response Center?

My love for Res-Q is back...

Even though I haven't been at work for the past week, I still haven't been able to dedicate any time to BlueBrick... until now. After all, how could I possibly turn down a request from a fellow Lego fan? Here you go Richie. I hope you like it.

During the next few days I will be working on some stuff which I have owed Alban for ages, so hopefully we can release version 1.6 some time in the near future.

Happy building!

Right, now that I have some time on my hands I figured it was time I presented an old classic which probably many AFOLs have in their collection somewhere. Actually it was my younger brother who had this set. I had the earlier 6392 model. I will post the XMLs tomorrow. I have added it to my BlueBrick layout which you can see here (a reproduction of my old layout which is here). I just noticed I still need to lighten the grays a bit too, so I will let you know when I have updated them.

I want to download bluebrick, but it can't. Where and how can I download this software? I made a new install of windows, that's why I lost it.

Rumplemuck already gave you the correct link, but alternatively you will always be able to find it in the very first post of this thread, and in the BlueBrick Set Index to which there is a link in my signature. Alternatively I have noticed that typing BlueBrick into google now actualy has the correct page turning up at the top of the search results.

I haven't gotten around to making the XMLs for the airport yet. I did a Vista to Windows 7 upgrade instead. I can't believe I waited so long! It is sooo much better.

Thx.

Hi guys, back from the dead, and I see you worked on some really nice additions for bluebrick.

I can't wait to start using it again, and adding some gifs to it.

Hi Aawsum, it is great to see you're back! I am looking forward to seeing your new layouts and GIF creations.

Groetjes en een prettig nieuw jaar!

I will be posting some more GIFs tomorrow. Right now I am just enjoying having a chance to read through all the threads I have been missing out on over the past months.
