Commander Jebidiah, upload your screenshots to a free hosting site like Imgur.com, then copy/paste the link they provide in your post.

Eve & Gilly: My biggest undertaking (image heavy)
Vanamonde replied to Ice30's topic in KSP1 Mission Reports
Nice mission, and nice report. I've made some of these reports myself, and know how much work goes into them. Welcome to the forum! (Oh, and moved to mission reports.) -
What is a Kraken drive?
Vanamonde replied to NERVAfan's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Dimetime35c, there are already several threads about the Kraken Drive. Yours has been merged into an existing one for the sake of keeping the forum tidy. -
n-body physics? We don't even have 2-body physics!
Vanamonde replied to Whirligig Girl's topic in KSP1 Discussion
Folks, N-body physics is on the what-not-to-suggest list because Squad has no plans to ever use it, and even if Squad ever should decide to convert to this model, it would be a major project and far, FAR down the priorities list. And since talking about it in the meantime tends to clutter up the forum endlessly and start arguments, it was decided to make this topic off-limit on the forum. The thread will be closed now. -
Needs pictures.

Well, Jeb used his backpack RCS, so technically...

"We kind of want to launch our rocket, but we also sort of want to burn it at the stake." "Why not both?!"

Have you simply walked or driven around and explored KSC? There are many interesting little details on and around those buildings. The island runway has some fun things to investigate as well. Also, the planets are really pretty. Sometimes I like to go back to a satellite I've previously put in orbit of one of them, and just watch the terrain roll by.

Congratulations! The first one is very exciting, but even after many, there's still something satisfying about it.

Is it time to give interstellar travel a shot?
Vanamonde replied to DarkStar64's topic in Science & Spaceflight
They'd have to flap pretty hard to get it up to interstellar speeds. Now the Bussard ramjet, on the other hand... -
Hello Killstr3aks. Welcome to the forum.

What is the coordinates for [Easter Egg Spoiler] on kerbin?
Vanamonde replied to PhoenixStar117's topic in KSP1 Discussion
It is above ground again. -
This is a very rare bug that I have only seen once or twice. In fact, I thought it was fixed several versions ago. Anyway, if you quit the game and start it up again, it's likely your missing Kerbal will be back where he's supposed to be, responding normally.

How to test landers at KSC by hacking gravity
Vanamonde replied to John FX's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
If you're going to do this, the best way would be to hypedit the craft to the Mun. I must confess that while I dislike using mods as a rule, I do use hyperedit for testing like this. I have one save in which cheats are okay and I don't care if Kerbals die because I consider it my real program's computer simulations, and once I have a design fully tested, I copy it over to my "real" game save. -
What's the best way to find a landing spot?
Vanamonde replied to jarmenia's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Until you're within 10 or so kilometers, the easter eggs are just sparking specks. You can see them from high orbit, *IF* you know exactly where to look*, but a visual search to find them in the first place is pretty much hopeless. Consider that Minmus alone has about the same surface area as Denmark, and imagine trying to find a handful of specks on its surface. If you do want to try it, the best method would be something like arise257's suggestion of a probe in low orbit which can brake hard to come down as a marker when it spots something. * At least this used to be possible. I haven't seen one this way in quite a while, so this may have changed in recent release versions. -
Guys, we already had to close one thread like this because the arguments were turning nasty. We'd rather not have to do it again. Do not resort to insults, no matter how strongly you feel about the subject, and remember to talk about the subject and not each other, or we will have to lock this thread as well.

And now, it is. Indeed. Gaze with awe and envy at my majestic assemblage of pixels! <-- Yonder.

Hello Hyperbob. Welcome to our forum.

Hello and welcome back. Was your old account wiped in the forum singularity?

A bubble which, in this case, contains nothing and serves no purpose and therefore has no reason for existing, and subsequently would create more drag than putting a properly sharp aerodynamic cone-like-thingy on there which didn't encase useless empty space, and even if it wasn't that bad, still serves no purpose. I really don't get this. Why are so many people determined to defend a patently ridiculous vehicle designed for its looks?

Highlad, that has nothing to do with this. At all. The software Spaceport uses was original intended to allow purchasing, but KSP doesn't use that aspect of it. I'ma gonna close the thread now that it's answered, to avoid any more confusion.
