Spring Block Party

It's time for another ROBLOX event! And of course, there will be prizes! I mean, what's an event without prizes?
-----
What to do:
Decorate your ROBLOX place, make a vehicle, make some rides, or let your creativity go wild and make something else (you can even dress up your ROBLOXian or make a news story!). You can make them in game, or make them with legos, lincon logs, k'nex, erectors, just about anything! After you make your item, take a picture, screen shot, or make a video of it and upload it to YouTube.
-----
How to enter:
If you have a screenshot or picture, upload them to your computer, and then submit it at http://robloxevents.com/?q=node/add/image. However, if your submitting a news story or video, "post a still image to get people excited about your entry and then provide a link to your news coverage (YouTube video or ROBLOX fansite blog post) in the description."
-----
Prizes:
If you entered a valid image, you shall receive a Block Party hat.
If you have been chosen by the ROBLOX staff to be in the parade, you shall recieve a pile of Robux in addition to your Block Party hat.
If your entry is one of the top voted, you shall be given a Player's Choice hat in addition to a Block Party hat.
If you entered a news story and it is declared "one of the best", you will get a bonus heap of Robux.

Hope you have fun with this event! And remember, it's just for fun!

A frenzy of new updates

ROBLOX has released a whole bunch of new updates! I'll try my best to make this short, yet still letting you know what exactly the updates are. First off, we can now leave comments on places! To leave a comment, go to the catalog, click on "places", search the place, and then leave your comment!
-----
Secondly, your places and models now appear in your "my stuff" page. Thirdly, if you go to "update profile", you can now verify your email. Why should you? If you lose or forget you password, it will be emailed to you, and you get a free hat. There will also be future benifits, but for now, that's it.
-----
Another ROBLOX update is that now BC members can switch the order of their places. You can also manage witch places are your "live places" by going to showcase and dragging them to a place slot.
-----
And last, but not least, Sparkles and the ClickDetector. I don't have much to say about these two, so I'll take the words right from Telamon's post. "The Sparkle object draws a shower of purple particles when placed under a Part in the Explorer pane of ROBLOX Studio. If you put a sparkle object under a jet engine or projectile part, you can create some interesting effects." As for the ClickDetector..."The ClickDetector object can be used to raise events when a part in the workspace is clicked by a user. It’s intended to be used to create buttons and control panels." If you want a demo on the Sparkles and the ClickDetector, go here: http://www.roblox.com/Place.aspx?ID=1596990. Also, the "browse" has been replaced with "people". Not much I can say except for "Check it out!"

Well, that just about wraps up the new updates.
