so...to show of a few of the pictures and videos i took at opening day, i created a small, simple website. just thought id share it with you all. i whipped it together in the matter of an hour or so...so its nothing spectuacular, but it will be better in time. it has some real bad quality videos (on and off rides)...but...thought youd like to see them.enjoy!*removed for illegal material*the video links SHOULD work...if they dont, just lemme know. click em and after they download they should pop up in your default player. i dont know much about this stuff...and i took the videos with a crappy camera...so dont expect much!

Nice photos and videos. It looks like S:UF needs some theming and grass to grow, because the Doomsday and Braniac prop look sad without grass around them. Well, they aren't open weekdays, which some give some time.

did you just take the camera out after you left the station or what? Every time I try to bring a camera on-ride they tell me to put it away.

yeah, its a pretty small camera...so i had it stuffed into one of my pockets (depending on the restraints) and then just pulled it out and got situated on the lift hill. the post ride pictures, in which im holding a camera, are precious.if you check out http://www.themeparkreview.com you will see some increible on ride videos...the thing that gets me is...they all seem to be allowed to shoot them. i dont know if there is a special pass you can obtain, or if its just special treatment due to acer status or something...but it seems all the videos he has shot were with nice, inconcealable cameras, and that the ride ops knew he was doing it...i dunno...but id like to be able to bring a nice camera on board!

Sorry man, I didn't bother to see if the link actually works, but that video of Dragster testing was not obtained legally. The person tresspassed, as you said, therefore you should realize you should not have it on your site. Also, you broke park rules by taking cameras on the rides. We condone the breaking of park rules, and any time it is made apparent that you did, the offending post, link, or whatever will be removed. Don't do it again.
