teaser pics
 
Guys i love looking at teaser pic to see if i can guess what it is you are making, but the teaser pis this year are getting dumb. What is the point of taking a pic of a bar or square block with a hole in it. Some of the pictures do are not even going to be on the robots.

How do you know?

Have you seen their completed robots?

If you don't like them, don't look.

Well, sick of teasers? Then check out sparky384.com, we have pics of our robot in full up. We won't tell you directly, but hey, you can interpret what we are going to do.

i'm enjoying these teasers, it's just cool to see what people are doing to have fun and what can be possible to be seen at competitions. 179 stuff is catching my eye of course b/c she's our sister team.
keep up the teasers just yeah take photos of actual parts that isn't just a bar stock, it does have to have some meaning.

keep up the good work

I feel the same. When you click on a teaser you are expecting something a little more than a picture of a bolt.

Who said a teaser pic has to be a pic of the robot. It's a teaser isn't it?


Check out the link in my signature for plenty of non teaser photos.

Ok, so for everyone that doesn't like the teasers, I challenge you to post a better picture of your own robot, or stop complaining. Nobody has to post any pictures of their robots/parts of their robots. We should consider ourselves lucky that they want to do so.

Honestly, I have to agree with you, it is kind of stupid to post a hole in a piece of metal as a teaser (unless you're 179, and there's several pieces of metal with very big and cool looking holes in them ;-)), but hey, someone, somewhere is happy that they posted that "teaser." So just let them be happy, let them post what they want, and if you don't like it, ignore it. I know that's what I've been doing this year, especially because I don't expect to see any impressive robot teasers, only because this year I think most robots will be functinally similar, and the teams that come out with the crazy designs usually don't bother posting teasers.

I agree with nuggetsyl's complaints about teaser pics. Why is it that bandwidth and space are taken up for these useless pictures? I now see that the resources could be better allocated to allow users to search for actually useful information more than once per 25 seconds. Chiefdelphi has always provided me with useful information, but that becomes limited when it is difficult for me to find it. Thankfully, I don't ever see anyone posting a whitepaper teaser: "Delphi's XS(F*&W#($ Drivetrain Details".
