  Hello,
The monthly maintenance message constantly reappears. Think it is happening every
5 minutes, probably 10, but feels like more!)If in the middle of an action, the
reappearance causes the screen to freeze or not load.
Is there a way to permanently not see the message again?
Thanks

It's far more frequent than 10 minutes. Happens about once a minute. I'm
flipping between open windows on my laptop. And its back on this page.

It remembers that you closed it from a cookie. Have you accepted the cookies?

Not much problem here.  I had the banner once yesterday and once today only.

Hi,

I put a cart together and was offered shipping methods when I looked at checking
out. Obviously no shipping methods are shown when the minimum buy is not met.
Did the potential buyer specify what item(s) they had in their cart?

Just got the buyer to confirm they had met my minimum buy so can rule that out,
but thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks, i'll try that suggestion.

I really need more physical lego etc to try this stuff, it seems the program
confuses
the hell out of me for some of it, and the connections just don't seem to
add up.

Hi and welcome

Posting here is okay but Studio and PartDesigner (and BDP) have a dedicated forum
that’s a bit more modern and that allows to post bigger pics: https://forum.bricklink.com/
(menu Studio » Resources » Studio Forum).

Back to the subject: if you’re talking about brick geometry, what you need to
remember is that 5 plates = 2 studs.
Then, it’s all playing with half plates and bricks (= 3 plates).

If I understand correctly, you want the small side tile to be flush with the
tiles on the long sides.  You need to use brackets: 1 bracket (thickness of 0.5
plate) + 1 plate + 1 tile = 2.5 plates = 1 stud, as on the pic below.

You also don’t need to have side studs all along the wall.  Some at the bottom
and some at the top will suffice.  And you don’t need to have inside walls all
along either, you can put only columns and then “bridge” them with plates.

15 years here (congrats BTW ) and you still read the maintenance banners?

Hi,

I'm new here, new to studio and i've not got many bits to fully mess
about with (that
aren't already built currently.)

I am trying to build a wall, it will be very, very long. 192 Studs long.
All yellow. And totally tiled, so smooth all around.
Here is an image of me attempting to do it, hopefully it gives the gist from
the short
part i've tried putting together. And what I want it to look like. (Flush
as possible as the bottom pic as i've just stuck them there as example.)
None of the bits will line up with the tiles etc.

I'm sure its so simple, but i've not found any help or youtube vids
that help. :/
Hope this is the right place on this forum for a bit of help!

Thanks.

The reason is that this cannot be changed - only if you did when Lego bought
this site.

LEGO bougth the site in December 2019 (or around that).
I guess you meant “when the accounts were integrated and the old ID pics lost.”


  PLEASE BRICKLINK FIX THIS.
And yes - i cleared my cache
removed cookies
restarted my pc/laptop
tried another browser
danced in the moonlight

Naked?  I believe you need to do it naked.  At least, that’s how I do it.
And with a feather in… er, forget about the feather.


  But you guys have to fix this.

Your service level was great for 25 years, but now....

My old post:

When i want to change my ID-card picture:
https://v2.bricklink.com/profile/id-card

(I click on the picture and "edit" I get the following message:

" Whoops!
An error occurred while loading the page, please try again."

It Works For Me™
(I just changed the background to be sure.)

But then, I changed it on day 1 of the account integration.


  And that's it - can you please let me know how to fix this?

Regards,

Bricksystem / Vincent

Thank you for reporting this, we are investigating the issue with the relevant

I am also having this problem. I could access stores 2 hours ago, (1900 hrs BST)
but not now. My computer is Windows 10 with AVG installed.

It used to be a running joke that Norton was excellent at stopping you getting
a computer virus. Not because it was good but that it was so slow and ran far
too often that it made your PC so unusable to the point that you didn't bother
turning it on.

As someone from a family how used to have Norton (for what seems like forever),
I can confirm that is accurate best decision ever to switch
