... till it's been gone awhile

Sunshine, comes to mind. It really can make you feel good! Especially after it's
been gone a few weeks, replaced with rain and overcast skies. A very chilly but
sunshiny workout day, finally. Don’t mind the cold at all if I can have the strong
sun's rays on my face

Across the Puget sound there, you can make out the Olympic Mountain range clearly
today. Though maybe not so much with the pic file reduction It's very picturesque
within that range, and consequently there have been several film and TV productions
shot therein over the years, Twilight films among them.

Have a wonderful day

What was LEGO thinking when they branded this??

Earlier today, I randomly decided to ask AI to create a Ninjago set with the
prompt
"choose a location from the Lego Ninjago universe and create a description
of a custom lego set of that location"
Now, I did this many months ago when Copilot, GPT, and other AI services were
becoming more well known-but could not get the AI to give me a satisfactory set.
No matter what prompt I put after, whether it be "Choose a location not done
before" or "Don't just reuse set descriptions" it wouldn't
listen to me and kept giving me things like "Ghost Attack: The Caves of Despair"
Now, however...
I gave the AI the same prompt, and on first attempt it gave me a generic entry
called "Lego Ninjago Monastery: Guardians of the Golden Weapons"
I then asked it "Can you choose a location not done before as an actual Lego
set", remembering what had happened last time I did that and kinda laughing
inside.
What it gave me surprised me, however. Quote,
Certainly! Let's explore a unique and uncharted location from the **Ninjago
universe** and create an exciting LEGO set:

---

# LEGO Ninjago: **The Crystal Caves of Lumina**

## Set Description:
**Set Number:** 71788
**Name:** Crystal Caves of Lumina
**Piece Count:** 1,345 pieces
**Ages:** 9 and up
**Minifigures:** Lumina (Crystal Guardian), Cole, and Crystal Miners
**Price:** $99.99 USD

## Features:
1. **Entrance to the Crystal Caves:**
- A large, translucent crystal archway leading into the mysterious caves.
- Lumina stands guard, holding her staff adorned with glowing crystals.
- Hidden mechanisms to open the archway and reveal the secrets within.

2. **Glowing Crystals and Stalactites:**
- Build intricate stalactites using transparent blue and purple elements.
- Arrange glowing crystals (made from translucent bricks) throughout the cave.
- Some crystals emit a soft light when pressed, revealing hidden paths.

3. **Crystal Mining Station:**
- A small mining station where Cole and the Crystal Miners extract luminescent
crystals.
- Conveyor belts, mining carts, and a crystal analyzer.
- A play feature that allows the miners to "drill" into the cave walls.

4. **Lumina's Chamber:**
- A central chamber with a crystal pedestal.
- Place Lumina on the pedestal to activate her elemental powers.
- Spin the pedestal to create a dazzling light show.

5. **Crystal Creatures:**
- Crystal bats, spiders, and scorpions lurking in the shadows.
- Use Cole's pickaxe to fend them off and collect rare crystals.

6. **Minifigures:**
- **Lumina (Crystal Guardian)**: Wears a flowing robe with intricate crystal
patterns.
- **Cole**: Equipped with a miner's helmet, pickaxe, and crystal backpack.
- **Crystal Miners**: Two hardworking miners in protective gear.

## Play Scenarios:
- **Crystal Quest**: Help Cole and Lumina uncover the ancient secrets hidden
within the caves.
- **Crystal Mining Adventure**: Load the mining cart, transport crystals, and
avoid the crystal creatures.
- **Guardian's Duty**: Lumina protects the mystical crystals from intruders.

## Bonus: **Exclusive Crystal Dragon Minifigure** included as a rare collectible!

The LEGO Ninjago Crystal Caves of Lumina set invites builders to explore the
magical underground world, discover glowing treasures, and unravel the mysteries
of Lumina's elemental powers. Get ready for an adventure like never before!
🧱💎

I honestly am surprised at the AI's use of such a random character-it has
improved much on the old searches from months ago. Kinda scary, but pretty cool,
too.

Please consider merging all parts with at least one stud. If you need a list,
please let me know. Listing more than one part that has studs seems redundant
to me. If this goes through i have some other suggestions:
Merge all bionicle parts with hero factory
Merge all cheese slopes with pizza tiles
Merge black with white
And there is more where that came from.

If you like this idea, please vote yes.

Sarcasm is the best offense!

I just realized all the HP wizard tiles of founders have special backgrounds
EXCEPT Rowena. Any idea why? It seems very odd. Every other character except
Godrick, helga and Salazar have the same background shape (even the special dumbledore
one.)

I am often wanting to build lego technic bikes but despite having a pretty powerful
pc (Ryzen 5 3600, RTX 2060? 16GB@3200MHz) the single fact of selecting a wheel

anyone knows how to fix performance ?

So I made a Google Chrome extension to make packing orders a tad easier, it adds
a checkbox to each item on an order that when clicked, will strikethrough and
grey-out the entry, it also has optional settings to highlight New parts and
Used Parts, as well as highlighting Quantity greater than 1. Also works to inventory
received orders.

On top of that, I also added a search field to the My Collection page to search
through your collection (why isn't there one already??).

And lastly, tracking numbers on the order page now have hyperlinks to view tracking
data on the USPS website (sorry international users, haven't made a way to
select other services yet).

This extension was made for myself, but I thought it was pretty neat, so I decided
to publish it, hopefully someone else can get some utility out of it. And if
anyone thinks of any additional features, feel free to reach out, I really enjoy
working on projects like this, so I don't mind working on it further.

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong topic, I couldn't figure out where
it belongs.

In Studio, part 3044c is connecting wrong. The bottom connectors are positioning
the piece one brick too low.

If there is somewhere else, I should be reporting this issue to, please let me
know. I'd submit a fix, but I'm still learning how to use PartDesigner.

I'd like the "1:1" text for scale, in the size guide, to be optional.
Please enable us to be able to turn it off, just like we can turn off the length.
People can print on larger pages and the scale wont be 1:1 anyway.
It is unnecessary in my opinion and should be optional to display.

I am having an issue where Studio keeps deleting my steps. I have several thousand
part build, and I am noticing that steps are being deleted and all the parts
are being pushed into different step.

Example, I have 1) left leg, 2) right leg, 3) body.

I open the file, and have 1) left leg, 2) body. Body has both the body parts,
and the right leg parts.

Any help would be appreciated.

(alternatively, is there a confirmation to delete something? if I'm at fault
somehow, maybe I can enable that to see what I'm doing)

Hi All,

Question for bricksync users!

Just added about 200 lots to my bricklink inventory and then open bricksync to
update the inventory on brickowl too, and I run the command `sync` on bricksync
and I realised it just matched my bricklink inventory with the Brickowl and just
deleted all my new added lots!

I know all I had to do was bLmaster on/off but I don't know WHY I did a sync
command!

Is there any way I can recover those lots without adding them manually again?
I don's use any backup software, was wondering if I can do it through bricklink
or so?

Thank you so much for your answer in advance.

Hi

I am new to the forum and BL. I have been playing around with setting up an
inventory, for an eventual BL store. I LOVE the Brickognize feature inside
Brickstore. That is sweet!

Yet I dont get a preview image when I set a piece under the camera?!?

I can still hit the space bar to take a photo and Brickognize does its magic
just fine. But I would like to have the preview image appear in the image box.

Is there something I am doing wrong?

I am on a Mac.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I have recently ran across a link on here for BLS Manager software. I have
downloaded it and trying to figure out all the features. Can anyone recommend
any video or instructional links that may help with learning some of the ins
and outs. Specifically can you download and retain ORDERS PLACED and not just
orders received.

Any other software that anyone recommends would be a great help as well.
Currently I have only been using the new version of Brickstock, now called Brickstore
I believe.

Thanks,
Marty

After opening the software, I was prompted to update, and then nothing happened

The same is true when opening a file.
I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and restarting, to no avail.

Has anyone else had issues with the new update? When I open studio it has the

Studio 2.0 opens with a dialog box about upgrading to 2.23 and immediately becomes
unresponsive. I have to force-quit the program.

Studio 2.23 is extremely buggy. It is sporadic in how it responds to the mouse-sometimes
it allows me to move a piece, sometimes it is unresponsive. Sometimes the pieces
refuse to snap to the grid and end up sitting between two positions. If I enter
camera pivot mode (right click), it will NOT exit camera-pivot and I have to
force-quit the program.

Please let me know when either of these options are functioning again on Mac.
I would love to create some builds with my son. Thank you.

Since the newest Stud.io update, the two zoom buttons in the top left corner,

Hello, all. This might be a dumb newbie question, but I need to ask:
In Studio, why is the 'Import' button disabled on about 90% of the models
that show up in the new project dialog? I'm logged in and everything, but
it appears that only a tiny fraction of the models can be imported. I realize
I'm probably overlooking something, but I'm new to this. Any help you
can give will be most appreciated.

Thanks!

So, recently I was doing my own room in Autodesk Maya 2024 for my 3D Modelling
prelims for college and I thought of adding a LEGO car for my room... only for
my teacher to say that every item MUST be made by us and not exported.

But that's not the topic I'm discussing. I'm talking about how would
I export a Studio file to Autodesk Maya 2024. Cuz when I exported it as a .dae
file (Collada file,) every part were separated parts. I used the combine tool,
but it will take ages to combine to the point where my CPU reaches 105°C! So
how would I export it as one object?

Hello,

my name is Lorenzo and I'm a 23 y/o CS student and spare time programmer.
In the last few months I've developed a software capable of converting a
3D model to a constructible and stable LEGO construction (supported model formats
are .gltf/.glb (extendable); very diffused in 3D modeling software).

The software runs locally and is provided with an UI, but it's easily convertible
to a headless software that can potentially run on a server (for a cloud-based
approach). It's a C++ software that heavily relies on NVIDIA GPU (CUDA) to
perform the conversion; with some work, can be extended to AMD GPU.

Is it something that can be of your interest?
e.g. it could be integrated to BrickLink Studio.

Do you have the contact of someone from LEGO I can reach out to either showcase
this software or ask for a grant for publishing it and use the LEGO brand?
As I'm not sure I can freely use it now.

Best regards,
thank you,

I know I posted this question a year or two ago about Arkansas, but after
5 years and 1262 orders I have finally sold to all US states. I don't know
why Arkansas took so long. I mean I shipped to Puerto Rico and military bases
over seas before Arkansas. They are ranked like 33rd for population so I don't
know why I've shipped more to Wyoming than Arkansas. Anyway how many orders
have y'all shipped to Arkansas or what is your hold out state or states?

Please keep in mind stated rule #5

- All members worldwide are welcome to participate, though consider that
we'll cover domestic shipping only, should you win.


But to accommodate, we'll accept any US based address you'd care to give
us: friend, family, fellow member, your ex makes no difference to us.

There's no limit to number of guesses or entries, just keep it to 1 per member
per 24 hour period. Thanks. No tracking update to post this morning. Enjoy

When I open BrickStore and try to update the database I get a error message that
states "Could not load new database: download and decompress failed: Connection
timed out". Anyone else getting this message?

I just wanted to write a post about how tasty Maille's original dijon mustard
is.

Unfortunately, being originally coded in 1747, the forum doesn't provide
an easy way to link to a specific brand or style of mustard except for ugly
links like:

https://maille.com/fr/e-boutique/moutardes/moutarde-de-dijon-originale-215g/

So, my suggestion is to add a mustard macro in the forum like the ones
we have for catalog items:

[MU=maille001]

It would include a picture of the product, a list of ingredients, nutrition facts,
local and online retailers, customer reviews, suggested recipes, etc.

The link should also be localized to the viewer's current location. For example,
members registered in the USA should be linked to Maille's U.S. website:

https://us.maille.com/collections/maille-originale/products/dijon-originale-mustard

A similar thing could be implemented for pizza or cheese, facilitating discussion
of these topics.

I realize that BrickLink's less than thirty employees are probably very busy
and have better things to do with their time, but this is an extremely important
feature and should be implemented immediately. BrickLink is frankly unusable
without it.

Merci beaucoup !

I tried to open Studio today and found that it stuck at "update available
issue". No matter how many times I click the update button it is still unresponsive.
I've tried everything to fix it, including quit and relaunch, restarting
my computer, and reinstall Studio but none of them work. Does anybody encounter
the same issue?

Hello,

I am trying to make to make a moc in Studio and I want to used a curved slope
without any print designs on it. The piece in question I want to use is part
11477 (the same piece used in the 2023 Star Wars 501st battle pack). However,
the design it shows for this in Studio isn't curved, but instead is somewhat
"cornered." I have included an image below to show what I mean

On the right it shows part 11477 with a print on it. This is the correct shape
for the piece I am looking for, however I do not want the print on it. On the
left is also part 11477 but without the print. For some reason though the shape
is incorrect. It is not curved like the piece on the right. Why is this?

I have never had this issue before. Out of curiosity I tried to open some of
my older projects that also used part 11477 without the print and lo and behold,
the piece design was no longer curved but somewhat "cornered."

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Stud.io but that didn't manage to work.
I also tried saving the piece from the bricklink website so I could see if it
would turn up in my saved parts in Studio but that did not fix the problem.

Is anyone else running into this issue? Are there any fixes?

Hello,
I took some time to develop an app to make picking orders easier. The first obvious
advantage is that the order workflow is designed for smartphones (Android only).
The app includes the familiar filtering options found on Bricklink and, at the
end of an order, offers automation features such as automatic feedback, sending
the Drive Thru, changing the order status, and archiving an order.

The app is completely free and open source!

You can download it here:
https://mybrickhub.com/

Additionally, the app is currently in alpha testing on the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mybrickhub.brickpicker

Feel free to test the app and let me know if you have any suggestions for improvements
or errors

Tom

It would be nice if StudIO had open multiple windows as a standard feature. Using
multiple viewports gets annoying as it has to split the screen multiple times.
My experience with StudIO has been that i need to have StudIO open on both screens
instead of clicking tabs switching back and forth.

The price guide in BrickStore is now in a SQLite file. In the past I would would
gather all of the txt files and accumulate them into one price guide file to
assist in determining my item prices.

Doing limited research I have been able to open the SQLite file but cannot access
the price guide data. Does anyone have suggestions on what to use to export
the data from the SQLite file?

From my research there appear to be many options but I can't find the "SQLite
for Dummies" version of how to do export the data.

Thank you,
Cob

Eventually and after 6+ months of preparation and testing, and a Stack Overflow
question of a really tough problem... this PC's migrated (few days ago) on
Windows 10!

Hopefully they'll cut us some slack... because Windows 10 support is supposed
to end in 2025 - that's almost next year

Fun fact, I still have a VM with the exact initial Windows XP I used when I registered
BrickLink


To share this event, I'm making a casual contest on forum: find the answer
and get 50€ of FREE order + its up to 500g FREE shipping, worldwide!

Double question:

* Which was the name of the very first Application (apart Windows itself,
D'oh) installed on my now obsolete PC Windows 7?

* As more than one person may find the name, please also give the date
(day/month if possible, or clearly differentiating) when this application
was installed in 2014...


Contest's opened from now on, until it closes on BrickLink EST date: Saturday,
Dec 23, 2023 00:00 EST

It's a bit more than 2 days only.


Rules (TL;DR):
* replies must be public, posted on Forum only - I may or not reply or comment
the posts
* 1 (ONE) reply per BrickLink member. You can cancel one/some and post a new.
But more than 1 will exclude all your replies
* winner is the one to give the correct application name, and (if few have) the
closest installation date (measure in days to this specific date)
* an application name, even a bit approximative is required: it shouldn't
consist of or contain abbreviation(s)
* the installation date should be CLEARLY differentiating day/month, if not like
03/04, I'll interpret it as day/month (yeah, French style)
* as a proof, I will post the screen copy of the Windows settings showing the
first installed apps in chronological order, showing the dates of course
* the price is an order credit in our shop for 50€ + 500g shipping cost to your
Country
* sorry, but no member's account with 0 (ZERO) Feedback Profile, or double
account (if we can be aware of)
* you will have to use our "Invoice me manually" Shipping Method so I
can credit the amount, and mention the contest in message so I know it's
you
* no heavy things like Baseplates, Duplo, Instructions..., this is supposed to
be casual - and avoid 100+ lots for the same reason
* you're of course welcome to order for more, in this case I'll credit
you the 50€ + 500g shipping price to your Country
* if your order's below the offered price, we will NOT send a payment of
the difference (it's like a Coupon if you wish)
* if your order's above, we may offer you the difference, or have to invoice
you the extra (depending multiple factors)...
* because contest will end before Xmas and we're overloaded, please don't
expect a quick shipping, especially for high number of lots
* tracking may or may not be provided or available depending too many factors
like Country, size, weight...


Note: Admins, Mods and even Pizza fans are (gladly!) accepted (but adults - which
may exclude some Pizza fans, LOL...)
See how I'm happy!



Good luck.


PS: just discovered we've got a Contest Topic, didn't know - thanks Cory
I guess!

I am working on a model studio using a few of the old arm parts. My question
is about the arm connector brick 791c01 or c02. I remember that the fingers
rotate in the brick so you can move arm up and down, not just right and left.
In studio, the default direction is horizontal to the brick. Is there a way
to rotate this fingers, I don't see a hinge direction for it. Or am I totally
misremembering that these rotate. Thanks in advance

Good afternoon-

I updated my Mac to Sonoma Version 14.2.1 (23C71) and have the most updated version
of Studio 2.0.

After launching Studio, the program becomes unresponsive. I've uninstalled
and download several previous versions and the problem still continues.

Has anyone else updated their Mac within the last few days and having issue?
If so, have you found a solution to get BrickLink to work?

Cheers!

Person buys for 8.09 euro in parts and 3.75 euro for shipping. Total amount of
11.84 euro paid with PayPal (Onsite). Order placed at 19:42.

Buyer messages me 40 minutes later "if it would be possible to cancel the
order and give a full refund."

I ask: "Can I ask for the reason?"

Buyer replies: "Money is a bit tight at the moment."

Ofcourse I will cancel with a full refund, but pretty odd situation...

So this has happened 3 times already within, oh say, the past 3 months. Lego
Studio keeps corrupting my files. I'll open it sometimes and when I do, the
previously opened files in the little explorer don't show up. When I click
on the file, it will just say parsing and if it does get past that, nothing shows
up.

I've tried unzipping the file, but if I right click on it, the wheel spins
and file explorer crashes (I have to restart my computer forcefully). I don't
know if it's because there is a part conflict and because the file is so
large (14,000 pieces) it just won't open.

What's going on here? I love this program, but at this point I don't
want to use it anymore. I have plans on making even larger models, but not if
lego studio is going to gobble them up.

Are there any programs that can help me look at the ldraw files inside?

I want to export an image I created in Studio. The following article explains
how this is done:

https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/5628123432215-Exporting-Instructions

However, the instructions here do not at all match the software I have downloaded.
According to the instructions, there should be a green button named "Export".
However, in my program there is "SIGN IN", "Add to wanted list"
and "Upload to MyStudio" in the top right.

I am using Studio version 2.23.11 (1)

This is the latest release, not the latest stable. The reason I am not using
the latest stable release is that would not start on my Macbook. I have Sonoma
14.2, so the OS version should not be a problem.

He has departed, my brother: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1433100

Changed his name to Rand after some years in Sweden, but was ever Randy to me.
By either name, anyone would count themselves as lucky to have been a part of
his life.

A good man, good father and a good brother. Loved ones left behind are Karin
his wonderful wife, and three great kids; Jacob, Julia and Jesper. The pic was
taken 4 months ago.

A heartfelt appreciation to those here that cared about him, expressed or not.
I have my cherished memories, and look forward to hopefully catching up with
him when my time comes

One of our forum regulars has made such an impression on the LEGO fan community
that the company has decided to make a minifigure of him. Pretty good likeness,
I'd say.

I want to design something and I need to use the part : 28802 Bracket 1 x 2 -
1 x 4. This part is not connecting to the other bricks properly in Studio.
Could you please advise on this matter?

Hi,

Recently I was assembling set 76918 (Speed Champions McLaren Solus GT & LM),
and after I unpacked the wrapping I saw that I got unlisted brick (1x6 tile in
teal color). I've assembled around 30 sets, and that's the first time
I got such set.

Is that a common thing? What is the most unusual brick that you got?

Hello I am currently in mode 1 reference 1 color for 1 drawer I use raaco tower
50 drawers and 18 drawers
I think switched to mode 1 lego reference and all the colors in a big drawer
(Sundis)
the colors of the same references would be stored in zip bags with the color
on a label stuck on the bag.

For those who use this method, have you encountered any negative points?

Thanks in advance

Hello

Please be gentle, I'm a new user! I had an account back in 2011 but it's
long-since timed out.

Just a quick question hopefully. I am working on building a model which uses
the 9244c01 universal joint, but this is not latching with rods. Any ideas what
to do?

Thank you!

I'm trying to export as a .DAE file, but each time I do the LEGO logo is
out of place/ not properly aligned or rotated with the model.

Any ideas on how to successfully get the logo on each of the studs for other
software such as Cinema 4d?

Hello experts,
is there an opportunity to reduce the palette of BL items in Studio to parts
of a certain era? I want to apply a filter for parts which existed until 1985.
Everythin after that is lust confusing for me and not helpful for my projects.
I'm very unexperienced in Studio but try to get into it.

I'm a systems engineer and I like to solve problems so I decided to give
it a try. So far, it's been good, although the one thing many Windows users
would need to get acquainted to is the notion that even on Ubuntu-based distros,
the OS doesn't entirely hold the user's hand and do things for them the
way Windows would. Installing Nvidia drivers for your 3080Ti is one example,
configuring some games in Wine to run in Linux is another. You have to get used
to using the command-line, which in my opinion is great for installing packages
from remote repositories.

I dig it. Proton runs many of the Steams games I like to play fairly well and
it's good that there's a site to check how well a game will run out there.
The challenge of figuring out a new OS is fun too, and I may try creating a copy
of Arch from scratch eventually when I'm more confident with Linux.

The only complaint I have so far, and granted I have not tried in a while, is
getting Bricklink Studio to run using Wine. There's a step in the installation
requiring you to restart your computer and the last time I tried installing it
didn't fare so well. Native Linux support would be super nice unless I'm
blind and it's offered already.

We recently received our 5000th feedback and upgraded to the orange brick! We've
been at this purposely since 2019 and have shipped out 8754 orders. We have no
social media presence, no advertising etc. and have pretty much lived in the
shadows but I'd like to introduce myself and my store and get to know everyone
a little better and become a bigger part of this amazing community.

My name is Mike, I am located in southwest Missouri, and my full-time gig is
a high school teacher. My wife handles most all of the picking and shipping and
a lot of the listing of new inventory. This store allows her to be a stay at
home mom, put in a couple of hours of work each day and then attend to the rest
of her obligations. I have three young children who also help out with picking
orders and things like minifigure identification.

My store's name is 0 to 60 #fastestshipping, and obviously that fastest shipping
claim is self-appointed. There may be stores that get packages out faster than
we do but there can't be many. We ship everything same day or next day for
orders that come in overnight. USPS does a good job from my location and a majority
of packages will reach their destination within 48 hours of ordering (I haven't
done a study with USPS Ground Advantage to see if that has slowed down from First-Class).
I am really proud of my storage system and the speed of which it allows us to
pull pieces. I store my inventory in 440 wooden drawers 24"x24"x2.5"
which I made out of recycled pallet and shipping box lumber (see picture).

My prices are quite high. This is a second job for me and a part-time job for
my wife, so we try to keep things manageable. We average around 6 orders a day
/ around 270 pieces a day / around 70 lots per day. With our current structure
my wife can spend a couple of hours per day getting the orders out and adding
200/300 pieces to our inventory so our store can maintain its current size. If
our prices were lower I'm afraid we'd have a hard time keeping up. Finding
that correct balance has been the most interesting part of this whole journey.

I'm sure this is more than you cared to know about us but thanks to this
community for everything and nice to meet you all!

Bricklink is having a lot of 403 Forbidden errors recently and the site could
at least show something pleasant or humorous to look at. Here are my entries.

Not political, whatsoever. Simply a heartfelt remembrance of the man and his
family
. A man who did battle for the common good, or for what he considered
as the good fight.

Pronounced dead around this time of day (CT) 60 years ago on this day - JFK

While the circumstances and manner in which he died will doubtless be forever
in question. What's unequivocal is that the man truly left-his-mark in the
time he had. He seems to have embraced the 'carpe diem' approach to life
his entire life up to that final day that seized him.

Looking for feedback. I currently have both a BO and BL store and are using
BrickFreedom for order managment. Not unhappy with BF at all! But looking for
feedback from those that have tried/used the three solutions that I am aware
of.

Hello All

With the change in password on Bricklink I find that I am unable to import orders
into Brickstore due to the password change.

For some reason I can not find where to update the password on Brickstore.

I must jus be missing it.

Where do I update the password on brickstore? Any help would be appreciated.
