Where is my instructable???

I found a type of light fixture (metal halide) in a dumpster, often used at businesses, but completely unfamiliar to me. In this instructable, I explore this type of light, its uses, dangers and possibilities (great!). But it does not show up in recent instructables!!! (it is not my first).

Projects sometimes take time to appear when posted at weekends, but your project has different issues:

  • Almost none of the steps have photos.
  • You have put all the instructions in the titles of the steps.
  • Your spelling and grammar is a little dodgy
But, most of all, you didn't actually make the bag; the only image you have used is ripped off from another website.

If you are going to steal other people's ideas, you could at least put some effort into it.

You should really do something with these. For general information about what you found / have got - post it in a Forum.

I didn't bother looking actually. just presumed that it might have got stuck and not accepted.

An Instructable is a step-by-step guide showing how you made or did something.

Does it fit this description?

And you don't have images for all the steps
