All,

Today was a landmark day for the Building Instructions Portal...today we
surpassed 100,000 click thrus!

http://www.bricksonthebrain.com/instructions

On more than 100,000 occasions, a user of the B.I. Portal has searched for
an instruction, clicked the link to that instruction, and then visited YOUR
sites!

Since it's launch, the top 5 Instructions (based on click thru) are:

#1 - Eric Sophie's Build-a-Bot

#2 - Steve Batch's Microfig Star Wars Speeder Bike

#3 - Dirk Meier's Deutsche Reichsbahn E30 passenger car

#4 - Ross Crawford's 2-speed gearbox for Silver Champion

#5 - Huw Millington's AquaZone Crab
http://www.bricksonthebrain.com/instructions/main.cfm?cat=60&review=119&revOn=true

Congrats to all 5 designers!


And don't forget, there's still time to get your name in the running for
