Jade mentioned it in the current Spinner event.  They are the same items used in the event room.  Supposedly release will be after the event.  Just a heads up.

Hugs Astro! :bighug: :hug: Thanks for posting all of the details. These objects are really cool - I think they will help make some really unique space rooms.  :thumb:

Looks like it's time to go bird hunting...er, I mean watching... :lolg:

I liked the bright neon room.  Not really spacey for me, but I loved the colors being blended and mixed together.  I found it odd in a good way.  :)

Neat stuff.  I like the colors.  The walls are a bit problematic at times.  Sometimes if you move them a bit, they become kindof 'split' in half from top to bottom (talking about the walls). If you move them one grid space over, it's fine.  So seems the grid is at fault again.  Sigh.  The floor tiles don't flush up against each other using grid move...so I'd suggest using the rooms with dark floors, unless you like to see space between the tiles.  Still, some pretty attractive stuff.

Some kids were talking about this same problem on another site. I have not personally seen it, but it sounds just like what you are describing, Flame. Apparently, it has to do with how they are designing the new larger pieces to be used with the grid. (ie. the larger wall pieces) I remember with the earlier large walls (gingerbread, ice) smaller items would not stack correctly on them. Hard to explain, but on a wall 4 grid spaces long, there were only 1 or 2 positions a 1x1 block would stack.

Now, the items are set up for each grid space of the object to be able to have a 1x1 item stacked on top of it. The problem is, sometimes the larger items appear to "split apart". Like I said, I haven't been able to do enough building lately to see it first hand. However, I've always thought building on VFK was more of an "art form" with the tweaking it takes. While that can be a negative, it can also be a positive because there is so much we can do using grid and free mode.

OK, so I need to really get some bird games in. I am going broke! :lolg:
