  Lego use for Package Tracking Firefox Extension
 
I was browsing the extensions gallery for the Mozilla Firefox browser when I came across something interesting. There was an extension that would add a "track package" option to the right-click menu, automatically recognizing what courier the (...)

  Re: Peeron Memory Upgrade
 
(...) Hi Dan, Yes, it does seem quite a bit faster for me when I search. Looks like the upgrade was definitely effective! Kelly (17 years ago, 4-Feb-07, to lugnet.db.inv, FTX)
 
  Re: Peeron Memory Upgrade
 
(...) I'd like to thank everyone who donated - the server has been upgraded, and hopefully, it's noticeably faster now! Dan (17 years ago, 4-Feb-07, to lugnet.db.inv, FTX)  
 
  Re: Peeron Memory Upgrade
 
(...) From what I've seen the goal has been reached in less than 24 hours...and probably, that's my personal guess, in a very few hours. That's, IMO, not surprising, because the initial amount of 400$ is pretty low and because both Dan as a person & (...) (17 years ago, 29-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv, FTX)
 
  Re: Peeron Memory Upgrade
 
(...) According to the donation page, it looks like you've already hit your goal! That's pretty impressive, considering that the percentage chart was only at 2% when I donated a couple of days ago. David "Fuzzy" Gregory (17 years ago, 29-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv, FTX)
 
  Peeron Memory Upgrade
 
Peeron has been growing by leaps and bounds since our last major upgrade two years ago - especially after the instruction scan library was moved from (URL) to (URL) PICSL>. While this is great news many of you will have noticed that recently we have (...) (17 years ago, 26-Jan-07, to lugnet.announce.peeron, lugnet.db.inv, FTX) !! 
 
  Re: Peeron fight
 
(...) Not a public one, at least not yet. There is a private one, used by a few apps. (17 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron fight
 
Does Peeron have a public API, like an XML-based web service? (17 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron fight
 
(...) Yes, it slurps the html pages and tries to parse them. I won't comment on what I think about parsing HTML ;) (17 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron fight
 
(...) And the Peeron version allows you to specify parts that you own rather than just sets. So if you got some stuff at Pick-A-Brick or BrickLink, you have the option of acknowledging that you have it. Handy in terms of being able to pick your list (...)

  Re: Peeron fight
 
(...) Very similar to this? (URL) that the Peeron version uses the sets you indicated you own, instead of an arbitrary list. (17 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Peeron fight
 
I found this (URL) while searching for a peeron link. Looks quite interesting. Tim (17 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron and PICSL updates
 
(...) D'oh! (...) The best link to use is: (URL) the instructions with peeron entries can be linked that way. ROSCO (17 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron and PICSL updates
 
(...) Yah, need to figure out the CSS to fix that. (...) I guess so! Look under the "Need Building Instructions" - "FREE Download: Available from PICSL". (...) I didn't forget about that, and even managed to get LEGO's ok for it. Just a matter of (...) (17 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron and PICSL updates
 
(...) I'd also like to echo others' thanks for this great resource, which I still use regularly. (...) I'm probably blind, but I can't see a link on the set page to the PICSL entry, did I miss it? I think it would be a useful addition. Also, I'm (...) (17 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron and PICSL updates
 
(...) I too would like to thank Dan for this awesome resource. I've just recently re-discovered it and it has been of tremendous assistance with various projects I'm working on. THANKS, Dan!! ..joseph g (17 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron and PICSL updates
 
(...) No comments or suggestions Dan, but a huge thank you for continuing this amazing service for those of us that use your site. Janey "Red Brick" (17 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Peeron and PICSL updates
 
Just a quick update on what's going on with Peeron and PICSL recently: - With the new year, Peeron is now able to show instructions from 2003. 36 were made available at midnight on the 1st, and since then, 11 more were added. See all available 2003 (...) (17 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.announce.peeron, lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.scans) ! 
 
  New set: request picture of set 5493
 
Could anyone please shoot and submit a picture of set #5493 - Limited Edition Tub ? I'm making an inventory of this set, but due to a broken camera I'm unable to submit a picture myself. The set is currently available in European Toys'R'Us shops, in (...) (17 years ago, 1-Nov-06, to lugnet.db.inv, FTX)
 
  Re: Member "Set Lists"
 
(...) Nod - it's not a major change in any means. It's still a change to a published API to the database, and being completely open, we have no way of know who (if anyone) is using it. I've updated peeron to deal with the new values (all it took was (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jul-06, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.db.inv)
