There will be Macs but they will not be used for reasons directly associated with what this is.

I agree Tour Montparnasse is rather gawdy. If it must go then so be it. As for the Tower de Eiffel, I have always thought it looked like a giant phallic symbol during the day. However, at night it looks pretty damn cool.

I'll focus that picture for you:



and raise you:

Ice skating ON the Eiffel Tower:


Yup, they built a little ice skating on the first level up of the ET . . . very cool.

and a panaramic collage of the Louvre:


Actual picture size was 2924 x 1292 but it doesn't play so well here..

Grrrr... it appears that kobiashi has a scanner even though he does not know how to use it. You made the Louvre look like a triple wide!! I am sans scanner and most of my pics are on film. curses.

I will raise your ice skating with a dealership of Ferrari's


and raise you a Notre Dame



By the way how's your vision??

Yes I have a scanner . . . however that's not what I used there . . .

I just took thre pix (digital camera) and stiched them together. Just as if you took three prints and laid them together side by side becausee the field of vision was wider than the camera would go.
