If your print is having trouble sticking, a good solution is to increase the temperature of the build platform. In the "gcode" tab in ReplicatorG, change the text to set the bed temperature to 118ºC instead of 110º. There will be a line near the top of the file like this:

M109 S110 T0 (set HBP temperature)

Change it to:

M109 S118 T0 (set HBP temperature)

It might also say T1 instead of T0, but the important thing is that it is set to 118º. Save the file once you've made the changes, then proceed to save it as an S3G for the SD card.
