I completely agree! However, didn't they have that before all these site changes? I thought I remember that...I'm also finding that a lot of great ibles haven't been featured so at least a category or channel feature would benefit the author.

I don't remember levels of feature?

"Want to know what it takes to get your Instructable featured? Wonder no more- here are the guidelines we use to identify feature-worthy Instructables! We now have three levels of featuring: 1. Individual channels (like Gardening or Robots) 2. Top-level categories (like Living and Technology) 3. The Instructables homepage"

That was one of the changes - Featuring used to only be single-level.

I remember that being there last year though. I know there were always topics and questions from people who received emails about getting featured on the front page but they actually only got featured in their category or channel. They would give the person 3 links of where it was featured on the homepage, 2 if category, and 1 if channel.

It was probably edited. ;)

Good picture, what camera etc?

My usual - Finepix S8100fd, set on automatic.

The positioning of Conker was purely fortuitous - he had run ahead and was sat on the toe waiting for me.

Angel of the north? What do they mean north?

Did you even try typing "angel of the north" into Google? If not, pull your head out of your colonoscopy and type it.

Technically, it wouldn't be in a colonoscopy, now would it...

Well, I felt like the prefix "self-" was redundant in this instance...

Random question about the thing in september: If i go back in time from the present (I may be wrong, but isn't history preset, like were at a certin time, but what ever happens it alredy going to happen, but were not there yet?) and change something, it's a paradox, but what if I go back a couple years, or months, wait it out, then change it, then would it be a paradox? (i may be completely wrong.)

>The thing in September

You mean the eternal September that you are participating in?

Your logic eludes me. If by "wait it out," you mean "wait until after the event you want to change has already happened," then by hypothesis it's already happened and you didn't change it. If you wait until after some event A has happened, but then change some consequence B of event A, you're still "changing the past," with all the paradoxes thereto.

ok, thats all i wanted to know, and by wait it out i ment wait until the time if the even, and get rid of your past self wearing a ronald reagon mask, or something, so you can change the past.

Let's see if we can push the maroons off towards the bottom of the page shall we?

It's a fantastic picture, and an impressive piece of public art. The serendipitous Conker adds a sense of scale and humanity.

I like your suggestions too, it sounds like a very good plan and I'm sure it's workable within the coding of the site, but that's an issue for those more skilled than I.
