Remember photos must be .jpg should not exceed 800x600 (Unfortunately, in the past many people have submitted photos that were far too large for TPR to use or in pdf form.) High quality photos, please (not blurry, distorted or out of focus). Lastly, we are not adding kiddie rides or major upcharges at this time, but we are at the point where family rides such: transportation rides, carousels, ferris wheels and bumper cars are being added. We are also not adding FECs (Family Entertainment Centers) to the Park Index. Our current rule of thumb is to include places that have 6 or more adults rides. And if you have to ability to scan your park maps, feel free to submit those for the years that all not already in the Park Index. Of course any PTRs containing superior photos or entertaining captions and a variety of pictures including multiple rides and areas (Not just one or two rides/attractions) are always valued. Attention has been given to every previously submitted Photo TR. Don't feel discouraged if we can't include every one. Photo in your PTRs must be downloaded onto the Theme Park Review server (not Imageshack, photobucket) for it to be included in the Park Index, that way we know a Red X will never appear. Lastly, if you have photos of a non-kiddie ride that is not in TPR's Park Index, please submit that also. The list of what we need is not complete, only based on ride that appear on my personal park maps. Edited February 11, 2011 by larrygator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ledgy Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 While I searched for news about the planed coaster for 2011 at "Freizeitpark Plohn", I took this park map from their homepage for you: (or isn´t that allowed?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1pizza14 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 ^^^ Zoom zone at CW isnt exacly a ride.. its an area inside an area. There are 3 rides. Silver Streak, Jumpin Jet, and Blast Off. There is no actual ride called zoom zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 ^OK, thanks. For some reason I thought Silver Streak was renamed "Zoom Zone", my bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linearinduction Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Larry, Sky Scraper at Lagoon is the name of the Ferris Wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printersdevil78 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Larry, In sorting photos for the next couple updates in my UK Trip thread, I found a much better picture of the Fantasy Island gallopers than the one I sent earlier in the year, if you can still use it: Fantasy Island gallopers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 (edited) ^thanks Jason - I can always use better pictures of rides. The Park Index is the only menaingful aspect of my life. In case anyone missed it the new thread I made, I just want to let everyone know that a lot of park maps have recently been scanned and added to the Park Index from Robb and Elissa's personal collection. Notable additions: HHN Orlando Park Guides, some Asian parks (from 2004-2009 trips) and European parks they visited in 2005.

larrygator Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Why did they have to put that "stupid" Texas Giant sign right below the Big Spin sign? This reminds me - I have to make a list of the SF rides getting new names and fix them in the Park Index. Shouldn't be too hard since most changes are with kiddie rides.

chadster Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 good question, funny thing is, there was no sound, no video presentation, or anything other than the TG slide on steady burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printersdevil78 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Found a better picture of the Cycle Monorail at Pleasure Island than the one I posted here before. This one includes the sign and cars instead of just the rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Jason - thanks for that picture. I'm still doing a lot of behind the scenes work on the Park Index. There are some updates (new photos, maps and nostalgia) everyone can see right now. Other changes on a grander scale are in process and not quite ready for release.

robbalvey Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 (edited) Speaking about the "ever evolving park index"... here is a sneak peek at something new that should be launching on TPR hopefully sooner than later! I do hope some of you guys will be as excited about this as Larry and I are! It's an expanded "Park Index" with the ability for users to login and rate the parks! That's all I'm going to say about it.... Edited January 18, 2011 by robbalvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samisthabomb Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 ^That sounds awesome! The TPR site just keeps getting better and better. Thanks, Robb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerrykoala2112 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Yeah, I've been checking on the Park Index every time before I head to a new park. I look at what credits are new, look at recent reports, and all that good stuff. This new one looks very user friendly, and should help many people when trying to seek info on a park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
