I watched the tutorials and then made a stab a fooling around by just placing something on my own and I can't even do that. I tried throwing down a "Wild Mouse" (a ride from my childhood) and it won't let me even make an entrance or exit. Everywhere I click, and I mean EVERYWHERE, it tells me the ride is in the way. Am I missing something here?

Just so you know I'm working with the 2nd Mouse design on the options list; the tall one with relatively small base.

Forget it. People as stupid as me shouldn't be allowed to live. :P
