You can view the rest of his August 1 update at www.pointpixels.com.

The no linking rule no longer applies to pointpixels.com. I only ask that you link to PointBuzz first, when/if possible. Doug's contributions will be a big asset and will help us keep our members up-to-date (in addition to helping the historic photo record cause). I appreciate his partnership.

Also, thanks to Tyler (tyfry87) for sending some pictures from yesterday, August 2:

Hooray for Doug!

I'm glad to see PP and PB working together. :)

Wheee!

And now back to your regularly scheduled programming....

Up next we have a great song by a forgotten band. Let's see if anyone remembers this one.

So could this be the base for a lift hill? Man I wonder how many more suprises there is instore.

Awesome update! Great pics by both you guys.

Looks like someone has been playing WAY too much of NoLimits, the engineers that is.

The updates look great! Thank you guys for contributing so much!

I am very glad to see thick(er) supports arriving. It makes me feel better about this ride being larger and more exciting! ;)

YAY YAY YAY!!!! I've loved Doug's updates. I've always loved PB's updates too. But, you can never have too many pics. :)

Speaking of round and round... You know I was just saying that in a thread yesterday? Someone even posted the lyrics.

Weird...

I don't know about you guys, but i see a station flythrough here...the question is, does it go UNDER the station?

I was just looking at the track at the construction site, and I got to thinking...what if that track makes a triple down, like on the Voyage, only without the tunnel? Maybe the curve of the far right piece is too sharp to connect to the far left piece, but I wouldn't count that option out just yet.

Wow, now I have no clue how the layout is going to be. I thought I had figured it out.

Great to see the two sites working together. Those are some awesome quality pics!

I love the pictures, guys! Even though I'm a bit more confused than ever.

DBCP,

Yes they do make sense. What was that coaster that I suggested it looked similar to? I can't remember. Maybe the Tornado? I have to look.

Okay, I can't find it and I don't remember what thread I put it in.
