annoying rubik's cube problem

[ibbo222]

hey...

i always get stuk on the rubik's cube when i have a full side of one colour but can't get thet top 'layer' all the same colours. of the four edges along the top with 3 squares each, only one of them ever has the same colour all the way across. others might have 'white, yellow, white' or 'red, white, red' for example. in the pictures it shows after the moves that i do, the top layer is 'complete' when on mine it is not.

how would i fix this problem??

thanks, daniel

ps. im not a total beginner and i know the moves, what they're called and stuff :p

hi Vane where in the guide are you getting stuck?

I think i've done step 1 and 2 ok, but when i get to step 3 i have the same problem that ibbo22 was having.

when i have a full side of one colour but can't get thet top 'layer' all the same colours. of the four edges along the top with 3 squares each, only one of them ever has the same colour all the way across. others might have 'white, yellow, white' or 'red, white, red' for example.

What can i do? What does it mean?

In our guide, the top layer is blue so after we place the blue corners (Step 1) and then the blue edge cubies (Step 2) the top layer will be completely finished and you'll be ready to start Step 3 where the middle layer edges will be placed. do you have your cube solved up to this point, or are you having trouble with either of the first two steps? You may post a pic of your cube to show where you're at if you like :)
