Well, that didn't work too well. How do I get the photo to actually appear in the message, instead as a photobucket link?

I looked thru. Do cockatiels enjoy their plastic pipes play gym? Where did you get it?
Great setup!

They do really like the playgym. I used to put it on top of their cage. However, I haven't put it up since I moved them to the Vision cage. It will probably be okay, but the top of the Vision cage isn't as strong as the older flight cage I had. Sometimes I put it on an endtable, but then they didn't bother with it that much.
I got it from King's Cages, in New Jersey. I got it by mail. I don't know which picture you saw, but it can be set up in various ways. I normally only have half of it up.
Everything is fine with it, unless you happen to knock it off whatever surface it is on. Then, some of the pipes will fracture. It happened to me twice. I don't know how to explain it, but it happened. After losing too many pieces of the first one, I got a second.
The tiels never bothered with the swing on it. Mostly they liked to climb up to the top and just sit there, surveying their bird-dom.
I recently had hooks put in the ceiling over the bird cage and there is a swing and a spiral thingy. These seem to be liked just as much as the playgym. Perhaps that is why I haven't put it back up.
Only problem is that I have boxes and boxes of used bird toys that have been a hit, got rotated out, and never get rotated back or disposed of. Basically, the Clutter Problem.

In Photobucket they give you four different codes for sharing. If you copy the one that says IMG next to it and paste it in your post, it will display. That's the coding that I copied to get this result:

They're looking very lively, not nervous as birds often are in a new cage! What do they think of the nestbox?
