The Zbots will help you if you:

ARRRGGGHHH! I meant the spoiler to be white so you couldn't easily read it. What did I do wrong?
Whiteness

I'm not sure whether this is the cause of the problem, but you appear to have an extra [/b] at the end. I believe the code for white is (color=white)text(/color) with square brackets rather than round. Also, to me at least, alternate messages in a topic are displayed with a coloured background, so whiteness doesn't really work. I think it would be better if there was an option to set the background colour of text - then you could set foreground and background to the same.

Bern,
It's Ok, I didn't look. Maybe, one day I will...
Thanks,

It is also quite handy to click preview before you submit - just to have a look what it looks like

Don't worry - I always muck it up too

OK, I got a tip from Amadeus, and did a bit of experimenting. Here is how to do it:
Type your message. Then highlight the text and click on "font Colour" and select "White". Then highlight the entire message again (including the "color=white" and slash color tags and click on "quote". Finally, make sure the "Disable BBCode in this post is UNchecked. Then, preview to make sure you didn't foul up. Then send.

Hey Bern, What blue and yellow buttons??? Do you mean the delayed timer ones up top. I can't get anything up there to make the Z-bots turn into the alcove. I can get the cannons and prisms done right and get all the bonuses but cannot get all the coins to finish the game. And there is no way these old fingers can hit the timer buttons and then go right and get those 4 coins and get out. And then there are the ones down at the bottom. Back to the original question-What blue and yellow buttons. Tks in advance.

upnorthx, do you still need help?
I just passed the level.
Rather than giving it all out I'm giving it hint by hint. Together they are a full answer. You may want to open from the first, until you will have an "aha!" moment.
Hint 1: (highlight to read)
Guide the Z-bots to the timers at the top.
Hint 2: (highlight to read)
Use the prisms at the bottom to do so.
Hint 3: (highlight to read)
NEVER break the bottom prisms when doing the cannon part. The coin can serve as a fire-stopper.
Hint 4: (highlight to read)
Move the two side-prisms one tile down, freeing the way for Z-bots.
Hint 5: (highlight to read)
Move the remaining prisms to close the lava.

I am having problems with this too! I understand the concept, but I just can't get the z-bots to go over the timers. Thanks for the hints, but I need more specific directions. How many prisms do I need and where do I put them? Please and thank you.

Then,You should move the prism like this:

You will guide those silly Z-Bots to the timer Button.
