Got 321 on one shot!!!
Ended up with a total of 424!!!
Couldn't find how to save it so took a pic instead!!!

Oh, well done!

You could 'screen dump' instead of the kerfuffle of taking a pic?? But please don't ask me to explain how to get that into a message!!

WOW! Respect is due! Bigup ya chest Arachnid!

Go [here] and download the excellent ScreeHunter 5 (free!)

Once you have installed, you can configure it to suit your needs. I have mine set up so that whenever I press F6, it saves a .jpg of the active window to the desktop. Then you can crop in Photoshop and hey presto!

(Really useful for doing tutorials etc...!)

By the way - has anyone had any luck making the skateboard work?

Also, we have a long way to go... If you google the game, there are people out there with scores of over 1000!

AHA!

Glide down - you need to going slowly - and then a final glide just as you hit the deck...

Voila! Skateboard appears and you can skate for another few feet!

AHA!!

I have tried this at work a few times and have not even flown 1ft. Came home tonight and tried. This time it takes three times as long to load, I get instructions and much more graphics than I did at work. WTF? Anyway first flight was 91ft so thats a major improvement.

Can someone do a scoresheet or something, seeing as this is now a battle of the sexes?

Scores:

Girls: winning
Boys: losing

Will that do?

SoupDragon · Post by **SoupDragon** » 12 Jan 2007, 22:59

Girls definitely winning! Mind you I think Dadaists got other things to do just now!
