When will it restart sir? I'm very excited to compete! I've got a brand new and most intelligent Ipad 2 stand from a cardboard! But I haven't published yet. Oh, by the way, what name should I give to that project and which other paper contests and challenges are opened? I want to know all Sir. Thank You!

Well, I did not get a chance to make but one more. My internet was way slow. It took forever to load the pictures. If I have time to whip out one more I will but it looks dim. I tried though! Thanks Sarah for the extension! Here is my link:

I have talked to the team that handles these bugs, and they are aware and fixing as fast as possible. In the meantime, I recommend trying to use Firefox. I have trouble whenever I use Chrome, and I know other people are having a hard time with Safari. I'm not sure about IE. I know it can be frustrating. Hang in there, be sure to save all of your text in a separate doc, and let me know if you still need time!

Hello Kitty says:

Yep, left them uploading all day and my pics still aren't done. Will you accept my Instructable if I can get it in by noon on the 15th?

_{^{(And should I even bother? Seems to already be a pretty clear winner to me.)}}

Thanks, I'm still hoping I can get it in by tonight but I'm not too sure. I finally got the uploader to work, but every time I edit my Instructable I keep losing all my text. Thanks again! (I love your profile pic, by the way)

Sep 14, 2011. 4:10 AM

Nameramthgin says:

lol, I had the same problem. i ended up alternating between the new and old uploader for each pic. took ages.

Hello Kitty says:

I love your dragon - awesomeness!

Sep 15, 2011. 9:52 PM

Nameramthgin says:

Thank you very much! I like the slipper orchids you made. Have you every tried to fold them with the "wet folding" technique? ( I am horrible at it) If you can manage it I would love to see them!

Sep 16, 2011. 6:16 AM

Hello Kitty says:

No, I've always been too worried that I would ruin my paper. I might try it, though - the orchids would probably be prettier. You should do an Instructable on it so I can see how to do it - you can use my orchids to show me how it's done :).

Sep 17, 2011. 10:35 PM

Nameramthgin says:

lol, I will see what I can come up with. As a note, printer paper works great too :D

I tried to upload my project before the deadline and the sight was down. Hopefully you will give an extra day for some of the people. Here is my link in case you do. If we get an extension I have 3 more to load. Thanks for the consideration.
