Glen Oaks Amusement Park

Understandable. The out of the station doesn't need to be that wide though, so that could be tightened up a bit. It just looks a little disproportionate is all. -
I am getting a Camera and can't decide!

So you didn't ask the photographer what to get. You asked her if what you wanted would "work." Big difference. OKAY, anyway. Yes, the Sony will "work" as your first camera, no it is not the "preferred" camera. -

^You'd be surprised. They SHOULD, but not all do. -

I have a Canon 20D, but you won't be getting that, but I do know that Canon cameras are EXCELLENT when it comes to image quality. I know about 4 or 5 people who have Cybershot A-series cameras and they have both great still quality and pretty darn good video qualities as well. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_a620.asp http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_a540.asp http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_a530.asp -

About the corkscrew. Why is it so WIDE? Other than that, looks really nice. -
Help!!!!!!!
BiCoastal Kid replied to konakoasterfan's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Here some minor little tips: Lift hill should consist of atleast 3 segments. The pull into the lift, the long straight portion, and the apex usually works nicely. Your brake runs, lifts, launches, and usually your station, should be straight. (Select that segment of track and press "I") Try as hard as you can to have track segments of equal length. This basically helps kep the rotation of the banking smooth and fluid. Other than that I would recommend going on to various NL sites and downloading high ranked tracks to see how a track should flow and how to shape and such. -
Cyclone at William's Grove

Well first they would have to save the hundreds of thousands of dollars it would take to do that. Then they would have to negotiate an agreement with a park that was willing to give up their land, rebuild it AS IS, AND front all future maintenance costs.... not many parks would be up to that. -

TPR and Theme Park Artwork

I took this picture a couple weeks ago while camping. It's on my deviantart, which currently only has 3 photos on it. http://xbicoastalkidx.deviantart.com/ -
I can recite the alphabet backwards on demand. I'm a generally good photographer. I have a basically amazing long-term memory. I can successfully, and convincingly, BS my way through entire oral presentations.

Mine is a picture from the cartoon Belle et Sebastien, better known in English speaking countries as Belle & Sebastian. It's a reference to one of my favorite bands.

^Natural selection only takes the people who do stupid things without the ability to do them, but when you have the ability to do something I guess it really isn't stupid anymore. ANYWAY. Can I just say that the American public are wussies and can't do anything for themselves? THANKS. -
RANDOM POST: Hayashi, can I say that I appreciate your style?

Just to expand: When they check steel track, usually they are checking the electronic sensors that go along the track, and the bolts get check as well.

I talked to some people who did it while I was there one time. It is a whole day hike. The cables are to help keep your balance, you don't pull yourself up just by the cables, but walk along them, holding on to keep your balance on the steep incline. It's kinda like a steep staircase, but the only stairs would be the metal ties used to secure the cable poles to the rock. http://heracles.itsc.adfa.edu.au/~sme/photos/croquet-sonoma-2000/up-halfdome.jpg
