V-Dub Rolling Shot Madness

Orangeball 2010 – The Party

After more than 6 hours driving through the American Northeast, the only thing that the Orangeballers wanted upon arrival was to rest up for the impending hotel madness.

The unlimited supply of bleach from the local Wal-Mart ensured that by the end of the evening most of the people attending the burnout sessions would leave with a minor case of lung burn.

Wal-Mart also was gracious enough to lend us a few shopping carts so the annual cart jousting tournament could take place.  I’m not sure who won this year but I did remember seeing a guy sailing through the air after taking a nasty jousting hit.

The local police department was on hand to make sure everyone was not too destructive.  One poor guy decided to test their patience too far and met the full force of North Brunswick’s boys in blue… although their uniforms were change to black for 2010 for some reason.  The officers looked better in blue in my opinion, but then again I’m not a police stylist.

Rest assured that the burnouts continued well into the night and not a single person was killed in the process.

Orangeball 2010 – The Ride

Orangeball 2010 came and went but with it came a heap of memories and experiences.  Over the next few weeks we’re going to be uploading our photos taken by MjK Photography.

50 cars and more than 100 people made the journey to Waterfest this year with the Orangeball Rally.  Our journey took us an average of 7 hours to complete and happily went off without a hitch.

The rest of the pictures will be uploaded over the next few weeks, so stay pegged onto OrangeballRally.com for the rest of the pictures!

Firefox update 3.6.9 broke Vimeo

If you’re trying to view embedded Vimeo videos on the Orangeball website after installing Firefox update 3.6.9 you’re shit out of luck.  I’ve sent a report to Vimeo and so have many other people, we’ll all just have to be patient while Vimeo gets its act together.

In the meantime you can still view the 2010 Orangeball Rally Trailer by going directly to our Vimeo Page or by going to our YouTube Page or by viewing the Orangeball website by using Internet Explorer.

Stay tuned to this post for the latest news…

Update: Looks like everything’s back to normal now.  Props to Vimeo for the fix.

New Orangeball Website Layout

We’ve just made some minor changes to the website to make things faster and easier to find on the Orangeball website.

The updated website has a new sub navigation bar that lays out all the post categories in a clean, simple and modern layout.  The “Downloads” tab has sub sections for the current Wallpapers and Mobile Phone Applications as well as all the upcoming freebies that will be available on the Orangeball website in the future.

The website background has gone some minor changes which include a lightening of the background so the content int he middle stands out better as well as being a lighter file and therefore will reduce page load times for viewers.

We hope the updates make things easier for you guys to navigate, thanks to all the constructive criticism that guided the changes :)
