In new LDD "Design By Me" mode and relative bricks are disabled at default.

To enable this mode I have to:
- Menu -> View -> New Themes and select one theme.
- Now the Theme Filter Icon is enabled, and I can Click on it, open the dropdown menu and click on "remove filter" button.

The question is: is there a way to enable Design By Me mode when I start LDD instead than follow this procedure?

In previous version of LDD Theme Filter Icon was enabled when I start the program, at least...

Yes, they decided to make DesignByMe a "pure" mode in the sence that you can only see and use buyable brick. Then there wouldn't be so much confusion when kids wanted to buy their model and some of the bricks were not buyable (or in plain english the "Check buyability" was no good. I mean, if you wanted a black 1x2 modified brick and you could only buy a red, how helpful is that?)

So now, the "Turn off Filter" in only enabled in Mindstorm and Creator Mode. But off couse now there is LU mode which is a whole other ballgame

Ah, ok!
I thought it was necessary to "turn off filter" even in universe mode to enjoy all pieces!
Thanks!

Any idea when they're going to update PAB with the pictures?

Not sure what you mean. When I'm looking it has pictures for all the elements. Have you tried refreshing your browser?

The PAB store seems to have "fixed" most of the missing pictures. But there are some that are still missing.

That could be in part because the knight helmet render is defective-- it has no attachment point inside for the head. Perhaps they're waiting for a more finalized render before adding an image to the site.
