!File Extensions!

[mightor]

While zip might be widely supported, it is not an open format like 7-zip.

While this may be true it's a moot point when not everyone can use it due to restrictions imposed upon them at their schools or for other reasons. Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD are also open but not everyone is using them, for a number of reasons

Anyway, I can live with zip, however I would at least expect NXT related file formats like .nxc, .ric and the like, and some general Lego formats like .ldr (LDraw) to be allowed. Those kind of files are usually less than 10 KB is size too.

Give me a list of LEGO/NXT extensions you'd like to see and I'll see which ones can be added easily

And isn't the max 3 attachments per post a bit low?

That's when zip files come in

Here is a list of ones I think I would benefit from (from highest to lowest priority):

.rbt
.rxe
.ric
.rso
.nxc
.nbc
.nqc

Thanks Matt,

Those extensions have been added to a new group called "LEGO Files".

Thank you Xander!!!

LDRAW CAD files:

• .ldr
• .mpd

.dat is sometimes used instead of .ldr. I do not like that extension of obvious reasons though...

They are just not quite useful if you wanted to illustrate something with images...

[mightor]

If you have a lot of images, you can always host them on any number of image hosting sites.

I am not going to add .dat but I have no issues with the other ones.
