It's not bad for your first instructable and your first time using mlcad. I have some tips for you though. First, you can customize the colors of the pieces so that they have the colors of real knex parts, you can do this by selecting a part and clicking more at the right of the color list and then clicking custom (generally the standard colors are too bright so you will need to drag the brightness/darkness bar up). Second, when you click file, save image(s) uncheck all of the boxes and I suggest that you select either a resolution of 800 x 600 or 1074 x 768 for a good image quality that still uploads online quickly. For the instructables main image I suggest 1600 x 1200, which is the maximum resolution. You can use not only the mouse, but also the arrow keys on your keyboard to move parts for precision. If you want to change the background color, go to settings, general, change, rendering, background color. I hope this is helpful.

Being small and simple, and not having to reset anything, it's almost the perfect target. I love it (so much I want to marry it).
