Thanks!

@krisidious said: or better yet a package of plant models for each country... Your last sentence gave me an idea: you could use the X-frog database: http://xfrog.com/category/AP.html At least to narrow down which plants you "can" find in a particular region and which you "can't". Since the site gives you both the technical name of the plant and the common name, then it's an easy task to search for that particular plant in google. How do you like this idea?

Gerard Michel RULES !

once again thank you my friend,...very warm attention. these are verry nice comments, specially when they are in similar situation, and personally experienced. thank you for sharing me an extract of your experiences :berserk: this is my real wealth.

Gorgeous collection of designs. It's interesting to compare the drawings with the actual; they seem to have abandoned a few finials and changed the top windows on the right hand gable. Adcote is private school for girls now. [image: PL008050.jpg] [image: 11Pf_Adcote_East_Wing.JPG]

Thank You!

Possibly they worked together at some point, or studied with the same teacher?

Google Yes Men - interesting. He is telling the true, and that is a fraud! http://businessandleadership.com/business/item/32592-is-this-guy-a-yes-man-or-a/

@solo said: Too bad I'm in Dallas as I'd attend. Please make sure to post photo's on this forum afterwards. I believe we have a bunch of NY members here, hope it's a success. I hope that the NYC'ers turn up, or we may not have any photos... Thanks, jh

I have to agree, these are excellent. The first is very thought provoking on several levels: historic/recent events, novel concept, and visual effects with very convincing fundamental techniques. And the symbolic heroic stance hinting at a renaissance.

I send him a PM before I knew about his cancer treatment, but he never replied. A gesture of encouragement is the least we can do. I am sure no one would object . Please do so, Gaieus.

You're most welcome, I'm glad it helped. ^_^

Cops are definitely trained observers. It is a strange feeling to talk to a guy who is scanning every inch of the interior of the house instead of looking you in the eye as you talk. Where I used to work there was a gal who had come home to find her door broken down. She had one of those old phone with the over size key pads for the almost blind. The police couldn't figure who called 911. Then it dawned on them that the cat had knocked the receiver off the cradle and then walked across the key pad.

I use a Logitech MX Revolution here. best mouse I've ever had. (the model now is the MX Performance. basically the same design with some tweaks) as to the navi's.. yup I have one as well.. don't use it since it's no where near as useful as my N52te Nostromo keypad..

I repaired/maintained a fouga magister. The irish airforce had 4 but now they're only used as ornaments. Pilots would say if they had to eject it meant death. Instant collision with stabiliser as you need to turn plane upside down and fall out.

Thanks Bob! It is always fun to get out and shoot. The star effect is in fact from the shutter, not a filter. That was something I was practicing that night, so I'm glad you noticed. Thanks for taking the time to look, Chris

Wow - thanks for posting that Dave! It's a great idea for an exercise!!!

Interesting. thanks for posting that.

Reminds me of the old days of rough timber structures, adobe, tipis, and attached greenhouses. Looks like Wales is having their 1970's now--FIRST eco-village? Good for him!
