This may be a dumb question but I've looked in the help and can't find
anything. There's also nothing in the hover-over tooltips or any other clues
on the inventories themselves.

When you view a set inventory, each part listed usually has a ! or a * (or both)
underneath the part image thumbnail. Can anyone tell me what they mean? ta.

A small asterisk (*) below a thumbnail image indicates that there is a large
image (like the one you see on this page) available when you click on the small
thumbnail.

An exclamation mark (!) below a thumbnail image indicates that there is 3D data
available.

Thanks, yeah, I see those tips now when I view the 3D part in "Quick Help Tips:",
dunno how I missed them before... I was slightly confused before that though
because when I was looking at a set inventory, part 3023 in black had a ! beneath
it but the same part in light grey didn't have one...

How is it confusing? Everybody knows that an asterisk is the symbol for "large"
and an exclamation mark the universal symbol for 3D, right? Can't see why
new users complain Bricklink is not intuitive
