Well thanks, but I found out how to kind of. Haha. I

upload the pics into a yahoo picture thingy, then save them to my pictures under a dif.

folder and then they are resized. Haha, so I am just going to do that!

:D Also, if you want to

see my all my construction pics together here is the link! :D

That is awesome! :D

That would

be cool if you put a helix in the coaster, it depends on how much speed you have left

though. :D

Well the last turn is pretty high still, I

think it would work. However I know it would be cool! Good work, loooooooove

smooth flowing coasters, only thing I disagree with and it's not very much is that

the first turning drop being un banked kinda bugged, but not a biggy. Good

work!

Well, I worked on it some more and added a bunny

hop, and also since it was in the front of the living room my parents were getting

frustrated, so I had to move it! Haha! So my dad and I moved it to that

back of the living room so this pic. shows a view from a dif. angle!

:D

Does the coaster complete the curcuit so far? Those

hills look pretty high.

No. It looks like it though. See how at the left of the picture the purple track keeps

going?

Awesome! love how the hils and turns are so

gradual, it's kinda like my model Air but with no inversions, hmmm, maybe

that's why I like it. :D

THANK YOU!!! I really

apprectiate that! It makes me want to finish it even more!!

haha! I was working on the station tonite and I don't have many pieces, but

I came up with one that kind of looks like a ship, but not really! I wanted it to

look like a normal station with some part unatched like it got hit by a hurricane....but

oh well! I might post a pic of the station as of now later :D

:D Well, sorry for the long

wait, but I was busy most of the weekend, but I did manage to finish this much of the

coaster! I have 2 construction pics ( are they too big in size). Also, I am not sure

what to do after this because I know I want the station in the center also!!

:D

That looks awsome! Great job! If it has

enough speed, you should add a helix or w/e else you had it mind. Also, a tip is to

build off of exsiting supports so you don't run out of supports fast.

Thanks! Yes, I was thinkng about just making a

banked turn and then have it come back inward to the break run, and then I would be

using other supports! So I might just do that...hmm....the possibilities! Are

the pics to big?
