- live news feeds bringing you vaulting news from Google, Yahoo, and PoleVaultPower
- expanded personal profiles
- search for other vaulters
- build a buddy list of other vaulters
- keep an online personal journal (weblog)
- join user groups
- post your favorite online games
- invite friends to join
- personal image galleries
- all new chat room
- social discussion forums

you can skip heights in the game. but only before you accept the height. click up and down before you hit anything else next time, you'll see what I mean.

Oh yeah I had the same problem. I was meaning to email you Ash, but I got distracted by my whole computer dying thing.

All the buttons on the site somehow take you to PayPal now (when they're not supposed to) :confused:

ok, i've got the paypal thing taken care of...sorry about that everybody.

I had set up a tip jar for those who wanted to donate some $$ towards the cost of running the site and to display a nice graph of how far along we were in the donation drive, but for some reason the paypal module hijacked the user registration and required a donation before you could continue. :o

just to let everyone know, thePoleVaultPit will never require anyone to pay $$ to use the site or sign up for an account.

thanks for visiting. :yes:

Ash, if you EVER need help maintaining the site, feel free to ask. I love webdesign and work constantly with it.
