Heading down to my hometown tomorrow for Christmas and the weekend.

I ordered crossties form eBay, and they haven't come yet. It's been a month! The seller said he shipped them out on Dec. 1st, but there isn't even a tracking number for it on my eBay page.

Knex Innovation just upgraded to VBulletin.

**Kairah** · #**528** 12-23-2009, 04:42 PM

Upgraded? I liked the older KI much more. This silver blueish just looks bad...

Shadowman · #**529** 12-23-2009, 05:04 PM

I know. But I think it's still upgrading, there will probably be more red and white soon to come. I also noticed that when you go on any instruction category, all of them aren't on there (my double helix lift is gone).

**Coaster105** · #**530** 12-23-2009, 05:58 PM

I agree. I liked the old style of KI better then the new one.

^you should put some of those instructions into the KF instruction catagory, since its working now.

Shadowman · #**531** 12-23-2009, 07:22 PM

^I can't, since you're only allowed to post one picture per step. Most of my Instructables use over 100 pictures, lol.

**BGTKing** · #**532** 12-24-2009, 12:03 AM

I need to hear things like that so I can improve it.

I want to shape it to what you like. Adding more than one photo at a time is not a difficult change to implement.

And if you are wondering about if I am going to upgrade to vBulletin 4 any time soon... I am waiting until the bugs and kinks are worked out of it to do so. The version we are running now really is more full featured and stable than the new release that is supposed to be better...

new versions don't work better at first, they just look nicer and work in a different way and may have more features

I've been working with some phpbb forums some time ago, and when they shifted to the new version, the site modification was a hell to figure out

Shadowman · #**534** 12-24-2009, 08:26 PM

I like this version.

It's very windy outside tonight. Too bad it won't snow for Christmas.

**BGTKing** · #**535** 12-25-2009, 12:56 AM

Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday!

floris2burn · #**536** 12-25-2009, 04:08 AM

Merry Christmas to you too BGTKing, and to everyone else too!

My parents got me a sturdy watch with a clip so I can attach it on my pencase. So I don't need this lame cellphone to know how late it is. (and I don't like wearing a watch on my wrist, itches all the time)

**MP thrill rides** · #**537** 12-25-2009, 04:44 AM

Merry Christmas guys!

I checked out the new KI site and it looks pretty sweet. They seem to be having some spam problems though.

**Kairah** · #**538** 12-25-2009, 06:53 AM

LOL half of the forums is spam!

Anyways, Merry Christmas!!

**BGTKing** · #**539** 12-25-2009, 01:34 PM

They are just using the default vBulletin setup and you have to setup the spam stuff or bots register like crazy.

Anyways, what did everyone get for Christmas? I get a trip to the Orange Bowl on January 5th.

**The KNex Weasel** · #**540** 12-26-2009, 04:03 PM

I got Tom Waits's latest CD and a gift certificate to Border's.

Shadowman · #**541** 12-26-2009, 04:10 PM

I got all of this stuff.

floris2burn · #**542** 12-27-2009, 04:31 AM

I got a little watch to use on my pencase, but in general, my parents paid my outfit/costume on iaido/jodo training
(it's a standard japanese martial arts like outfit, a scirt-trauser and what are the names...)

here's an image from the web:

**Kairah** · #**543** 12-27-2009, 09:48 AM

No presents for me :/

But I made a nice layout for my youtube channel today, and also a banner.

**BGTKing** · #**544** 12-27-2009, 10:27 AM

Anyone know where you can find the Hornet Swarm Coaster besides online?

Shadowman · #**545** 12-27-2009, 01:52 PM

^It's sold at Sam's Club.

I like your signature picture, Kairah. I need to find out how to make one like that. Mine was just made on Microsoft Word and then snipped into a picture.
