Many of us here still look at Fahrenheit temperatures, much more impressive talking
about temps of 100 degrees or more.

  It's very odd here with units, I know we are odd anyway, we still use a mixture
of both.

I'm of a generation that has lived through the change over, I don't have
much trouble switching from one to the other, this includes our currency that
changed from units of 12 to 10.

We've never truly made a complete switch.

I'm comfortable either way except with degrees Celsius. When my Canadian
friends talk about "it was so hot today, 30 degrees" I just can't wrap my
head around it.

  When I perform a search, say on Millennium Falcon sets, and then click on a set,
the weight and dimensions of the set are in Metric units. I live in the USA,
and have lived in Europe. So, metric is pretty easy for me to convert in my head.
But, for the people on the planet that use the Imperial system, and haven’t had
to use grams, millimeters, etc., metric is just a bunch of gobbley-gook that
required the extra step of converting somehow..

Feature Suggestion: Add a setting in the settings menu that allows the display
of Imperial units instead of metric units.

p.s. May the flees of a thousand camels come to rest in the armpits of all those
who comment with: “Everyone should just convert to metric!”

Submitted one version under not applicable but can't offer a different colour
under the same not applicable option.

Both images are marbled but quite different main colours.

One is marbled Green, I have a second version of this as each plate is different.

Another is on a block , Dark Orange/Medium brown and marbled.

  Thought I'd ask if there is any point trying to add images of these to the
catalogue or does the marbling and the block rule them out ?

If there are missing images, submit them and we'll take a look.
