larrygator Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 ^Thanks for resubmitting those photos, if you have pictures of non-coasters that are unique such as the Dark Rides (Dracula's Castle, Terroride) or the Rock o Planes. Even you you just have pictures of the Dark Ride exteriors they would be nice to add to the Index. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanlv Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Larry what ride is this? Wuhan Zhongshan Park - Wacky Worm I don't remember there being a Wacky Worm in Wuhan Zhongdhan Park. Is this a coaster? Where did you get the information, because it isn't on RCDB and there was only three coasters in the park when we visited. If you give me more information maybe I can go through my pictures from Wuhan, because I photographed most of the rides. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 ^Turns out I misaligned a spreadsheet and Worlds of Fun is the park where we don't have a picture of the Wacky Worm thanks for catching that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbear30 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I have pics of several of these....Here you go..... I know you had Roadrunner Express (SFDK) on your list before so I included it. I also included pics of the Southern Star inverting ship and the Taxi Jam coaster at Carowinds just in case you needed those. I have lots of other pics if you need others from those parks. I also have pics from BGA, BGE, CGA, KD, SWO, DW, IOA etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 ^thanks those were great and most have been added. The database is progressing along quite nicely with coasters, hopefully we get more of the larger/popular flat rides added this summer, so Southern Star and Phantom Flyers were helpful.

larrygator Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Besides ride photos we are always looking to add PTRs from you to our Park Index. The ones we link into the Park Index generally abide by the following guidelines. Remember we can't always link every PTR, so we have to be selective. 1 - Photos should be downloaded onto the Theme Park Review server (not Imageshack, photobucket) that way we know a Red X will never appear. 2 - Photos should not exceed 800x600 3 - PTRs should contain a variety of pictures of the park, including multiple rides and areas. (Not just one or two rides/attractions). 4 - Entertaining captions always help if it is a popular park with a lot of PTRs. 5 - High quality photos (not blurry, distorted or out of focus). Ride Photos Over the past months hundreds of new flat and water rides have been to the Park Index. The Park Index will continue to be built out into a better resource in planning future trips to parks for which you might not be familiar. (If you don't believe me randomly click on a North American or European Park from the Park Index, there is a good chance you will see more than last time.) In addition we have received great support in adding missing photos. The contributors are too numerous to name, although we still need more signs. Of course this is a never ending project as new rides are constructed, but all help is appreciated. If you are really keen on helping you can do the following. Before you leave for the park, you can check the Park Index to see which major rides (not just coasters) are missing from the index. Then take pictures of those rides and the ride signs. As Robb builds more elements to the Park Index, these additional photos will really help. Remember all photos submissions should not exceed 800 x 600. Besides the rides listed below there are plenty of other rides we could easily include in the database, including new coasters as they open this year. For the following rides we need photos of the ride sign Bon Bon Land - Kaninus Bowcraft - Crossbow, Dragon Darien Lake - UFO Djurs Sommerland - Karlo's Taxi Farup Sommerland - Mini Expressen Gardaland - Magic Mountain, Ortobruco Express Ghost Town in the Sky - Cliffhanger Gilroy Gardens - Banana Split Great Escape - Condor Isla Magica - Tren de Potosi Karolinelund - Boomerang Lightwater Valley - Twister Marineland - Ladybug Coaster, Topple Tower, Skyhawk Morey's Piers - Rollie's Coaster Nigloland - Chenille, La Manor Haute Parque Attraciones de Zaragoza - Ramses Pleasure Island (UK) - Boomerang, GoGator Mini Mine Train, 4 Man Bob Ratanga Junction - Devil Diamond Run Sea World Texas - Journey to Atlantis Sommerland Syd - Kaemperutshebanen, Tornado Tibidabo - Montana Rusa, Pndol Tusenfryd - Teeny Weeny Walibi Rhone Alps - Boomerang, Coccinelle Western Playland - Bandido, Miner Coaster Wild Adventures - Tiger Coaster Wonderland (TX) - Big Coaster, Hornet For the following we need any pictures you have of the ride Bowcraft - Crossbow, Dragon Gilroy Gardens - Banana Split Pleasure Island (UK) - Boomerang, GoGator Mini Mine Train, 4 Man Bob Wild Adventures - Gold Rush thanks to everyone for reading and contributing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I don't think High Roller really has a "Ride Sign" but then again I can't remember. I'll check come Tuesday the 19th. MOD EDIT by larrygator: Sure let us know.. Once someone confirms that a ride sign does not exist I remove it from the need list, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Turns out when looking at a park the list of rides with photos was getting too big and it was difficult for many to glance at the Park Index and quickly see a list of coasters at each park. Rides with photos are now separated into two areas: 1 - Coaster Photos 2 - Other Ride Photos The developers are working on making the layout more user friendly (this will happen real soon) so the other ride photo links will directly follow the coaster photos links on each park's homepage.

Nosferatu Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Seems to have been a mix up in the park index: When going ot Wallygator park in the park index, and clicking a TR fomr TPR's 2005 Europe trip it goes to a TR from Wallibi Lorrain! And I don't think Wallibi Lorrain has its own page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larrygator Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 If you can provide some ideas on what you need I will be more than happy to help adding Pics from Conneaut lake Park this summer. It's pretty simple. Click on the "TPR Park Index" link on the top of the page. Then select Conneaut Lake Park. You will see a list of coaster and rides. If an adult/family ride is missing (even if it is "just" a tilt-a-whirl) please take some good pictures and submit them. Even if we already have a ride listed check out the pictures, if you can provide a better picture, please do. It's that easy. I think we currently have only 3-4 non-coasters in the CLP database.

larrygator Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Keep all the photos coming in, just remember to resize them properly. When it comes to rides already in the database only the best pictures can be added, but we still need any photos for plenty of non-coasters. In addition to 15 new parks, over 1,000 rides and 3,000 photos have been added to the Park Index in the past 6 weeks. Besides ride photos we are always looking to add PTRs from you to our Park Index.

The missing Patriot sign is a result of the exact reason we prefer to have the pictures downloaded to the TPR server, as the previously submitted photobucket link is no longer valid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
