  1. Thank you all vey much for your help, I did have a bit of trouble getting good qualtiy pictures after I re-sized threm but its sorted now, I should have a trip report from Thorpe Park and Alton Towers up later today!!! Thank you all once again for all your help!
  2. Could someone do me a favour, theres a topic called "Stealth at Thorpe Park", on the last page I've uploaded some videos of Stealth from my camara, please could someone download one of them as I need to know wether they work or not!! Thank you very much
  3. I do have xp but I'll have to try it on friday as I'm off to Alton Towers in a minute, I am taking my camara so hopefully I'll have a little trip report, I do already have a trip report ready of Thorpe Park but Ican't sort the pohot's out! Hopefully I'll get it done on friday!!
  4. ^ Did you see the topic I posted? About uploading Images, if you could help me, please reply to on the post: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=23545
  5. How do you mean, your having trouble with the KB of the pictures?
  6. I just resized an image on Microsoft Photo editor but it hasnt made any difference,they are still to big, and if i go any smaller you wont be able to see it
  7. I have a Samsung Digital camara, I can transfer the pictures to this computer fine but I can't upload them to this site because they are bigger than 150kb/mb or what ever it is, is there something I can do about this? Loads of you have uploaded your photo's from your digital camaras but I can't!! Why is this? PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME!!
  8. Well theres Pepsi and Diet Pepsi(with out sugar) and then theres Pepsi Max, apparantly its diet Pepsi with the Great taste of normal Pepsi! Pepsi Max Big One sounds very cool Pepsi Big one Diet Pepsi Big One
  9. Yeah but the same could be said for the Pepsi Max Big One at Blackpool, but the only advertisment is the train goes through 2 giant Pepsi cans before the lift-hill!
  10. I mean for example, Air at Alton Towers is sponserd by Cadburys Minature Hereos, but that just on the sign post saying "Air, in association with Cadburys Minature Hereos", and there some chocolates in the Air shop, but thats nothing compared to the Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park, I'm afraid I don't have any pics so I'll just have to descripe it as best as I can, Well everyone's heard of Original Source, yeah? The shampoo company, best for their tea tree stuff, well they are the brand new sponers of the Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park, and boy do they want you to no it!! The entrance to the queue line is now plasters in OS (Original Source) signage, boxes in the water are now boxes of OS stuff, the boats have been repainted to look like OS , around the entrance to the queue everythinf has been repainted to OS, the bridge has been repainted bright green and covered in OS signs, queue line themeing is now all OS!! So it now looks like the ride is now called Original Source, sponsered by Tidal Wave! Is there any other rides across the world like this? If os please post your pics!!!!
  11. ^ I got annual pass so no refund, but I will write to them to try an get free tickets and ut them on eBay
  12. ^ Hey I was there sunday too! Everytime I went to Stealth on Sunday there was some bloke in a yellow jacket there aswell, and everytime he was on it he would do loudest low-pitch scream ever, constantly, throught out the whole ride! Say "were" in a really low pitch tone really really loud, thats what it sounded like!! Crazy man!! Made me laugh!! Anyway I have to express my feelings about Tussuards, how greedy are they getting? YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR YOUR FAST TRACK/FAST PASS TICKETS, THEY'VE REMOVED THE OLD FT/FP VENDING MACHINES & YOU NOW HAVE TO PAY £3/5 FOR THEM: STEALTH £3 COLOSSUS, NEMESIS INFERNO, x:/NWO, TIDAL WAVE £5 SLAMMER, RUSH, VORTEX, DETONATOR £5 IT WOULD'NT BE SO BAD IF THEY WERE UNLIMTIED BUT YOU ONLY GET 1 FOR EACH RIDE!!! The funny thing is I never saw anyone with one of these, especially on Stealth!! Also I think the themeing around Stealth is good, a bit to much the same as Rita but it's good, but what really sticks out in the 1950's Rock 'N Roll era is the very futuristic Stealth logo! I tlooks like it should be for a film like: Stealth: Robocop Returns But they think a very futuristic logo fits in with 1950's themeing Did anyone else notice how quick the queue went down? Very quick IMO. I can't praise the staff on Stealth enough for the effort they put in on getting the queue down as quick as possible! This made up for quite a bit of a strange trip to Down-Time Park, these rides were'nt in operation on sunday: Slammer Tidal Wave Rush Detonator X:/NWO (I think this may have opened late on in the day) Samurai (" " " " " " " ")
  13. Don't go for the obvious, Millenium Force, Duelling Dragons etc, be realistic! I drive lots and everytime I see an empty field I always imagine what I could build on it, I would love to own a little park Be serious, you own a litle park, what would it be like, at the moment its just land but you have to add all the rides etc. My big coasters woud have to be a Boomerang & an SLC Standard, mainly because they are very cheap, large thrilling rides(you have to remember you own a little park, which mainly are aimed at family days out, so an SLC & Boomerang are big rides for a family park). Other rides would be an S&S Space Shot, a standard compact Log Flume, Fabbri Booster, Go-Karts, Dodgems, Pirate Ship! My park isn't yet open, there are plenty more rides to be bought, mainly kiddie's! But plans are starting to take place for a Brand New coaster in the 2008 season, more news on this when I make it up! The park is called "Spring Island Adventure Park" and is due to open in time for the summer of 2006! Can't wait! How about yours?
  14. Heres some of my mini videos of Stealth that I took from my camara, the only problem is they don't work on the computer that I'm using but they do work on my computer in my room(that doesn't have the internet) So please let ne know if they work or not! I only get sound on this computer, but I get everything 110% on my computer in my room! Stealth.zip Stealth 3.zip Stealth 2.zip

  16. ^ Remeber that video shows Stealth's first ever ride with the public, it does now go over the top hat faster but not that fast! I HAVE TO ADMIT, I SLATED STEALTH BEFROE I RODE IT BUT NOW I REGRET IT! It works on the same wave-lenght that Oblivion works, it's so short but soooo sweet, and you are left buzzing like the queen of all bee's when the train hits them brakes! I didn't think the launch sould be that much different ot Rita's but boy was I wrong, it's immense, I love it! Front seat is definetly best fot the launch and climb up to the top hat and the descent, but in the front you don't get any air time at all, even on the airtime hill! But you get lots in the back seat, on descent and on the airtime hill! I'm going to do a mini trip report on this later today, but bare in mind I didn't take that many photo's as my camara can be a video camara so i took lots of mini videos, I'll try and get them posted as well!
  17. All I know about it is it's costing roughly £8million (same price as Rita), it's ment to have some amazing special affects, and the big feature is the glass elevator, where it's ment to seem like your actually going out of the factory roof!
  18. Oh well, as I've double posted I might aswell make use of it, heres a video I found from a Thorpe Park fans website of Stealth's first ever run with the puplic! Thanks to: www.ThorpePark2006.co.uk Opening_Day.zip
  19. I'm still very confused on this whole Colossus and different restraints!! Heres another pic taken 1 month after Colossus opened, and from what I can see they are definetly black restraints!! www.rcdb.com
  20. They say you (Robb) got banned from CP because you tried to take your camara on TTD, and you then took a picture and posted it on the web????????Thats why they "banned" you! Thats ludacrus, you should be sent to jail for that kind crime! To be honest in that thread I read there were people saying nice things about you but that Jeff bloke didn't like you being mentioned, which is very sad Does he really get money if you view his site?
  21. Thank you very much! I was kind of confused
  22. Thats fine, I just wanted to see it as I can't seem to find anything on their site, well it's just so big with a whole 2 pages of topics! & I see what you mean about them pop-ups, stupid (very)camp bear HEY SHARKTUMS, can I just ask a question, I haven't been with this site for very long, but I am very much addicted as I have never used a forum before, but why am I a "Full Fledged Donkey Enthusiast!"?????
  23. So do you guys not get along with anyone from this CB site? What started this fued? Just checked out their website for the first time, someone posted a thread asking what parks Robb & co are banned from and they've locked it, they seem pretty peed! Could someone be so kind as to post a link to one of these topics with this "childish" behaviour as I can't seem to find any!
