my second post;
Hey guys I was working on the first robot tutorial today and I need to modify the Hitec HS-311 servo for continuous rotation and I am not wanting to spend an extra twenty bucks for the dealer to do it for me so I was wanting you guys to post links to tutorials of continuous rotation. Thank You!(in advance) :D

Good luck on your first robotics project and welcome to SOR!
Here is the tutorial for servo modification http://www.societyofrobots.com/actuators_modifyservo.shtml (http://www.societyofrobots.com/actuators_modifyservo.shtml)

very easy, just remove the pin which is in the last gear!
-
in most cases you must cut the tab and blue the pot head down...
normally only metal geared servos have pins...
-
if you haven't bought the servos yet you can buy them (being ones for continuous rotation) for about the same as regular ones
i know solarbotics and robotship.us carry them, as well as a couple of other places.
i know its good to know how to mod servos, but, i'm lazy :P
-
i m with wil,i prefer to buy continuous rotation servos.i m also too lazy but i agree that learning this technique is just awesome but anyways both cost the same so i prevent buying servos without mod. ;D ;D

he said he didn't want to pay to have them modded...

You don't pay them, they come pre-modded at the factory.
-
they come pre modded and they cost the same, saves you a lot of time and effort and costs the same, thats why i buy mine pre modded
