Boo Yah! That's sweet. The calendar is a nice touch, that's actually highly usefull! Since Forty has been deserving this for so long I'll repalce Kelly Clarkson for the time being.
I've been meaning to ask too... where'd you take these pics, forty? Looks like a sweet location.

Doh, the windows taskbar covered up my little signature. I'll have to move it next time.

Wait, nevermind... your sig... yeah, it did. I read it too fast and thought you ment the HCF logo.

mxs, you f(*&in' ROCK! Thanks!!
amg, its a run down parking structure in downtown Grand Rapids, MI. I'd seen other peoples pics on a local forum (none of which used the graffitti for some reason), and I asked where it was. Couple people tried explaining it to me, but I drove around for like an hour and a half one Saturday and could NOT find it. I finally said screw it, and pulled into this parking lot thing to just take the pics there, and when I glanced in my rear view, I saw the entrance to this place, haha. It's seriously one of the best pic spots in G.R., it's a little different everytime you go there. I can't wait to get some more pics there in the spring.
I also want to go at night, now that I have a nice tripod for my camera. Theres no lights inside of it, but a ton of street lights and everyone around the outside, so it just gets like an odd orange glow at night, its nuts.

I mean he should just like charge thirty five bucks to like compile a bunch of pictures into a poster... that'd be pretty sweet, and there are a enough people in this forum and others that would pay to have it done, it might make a nice sideline gig. Actually I just meant it as a compliment, but actually if you like photoshop, it might be kinda fun, and you might make some money at it...
shopmanual, first of all, Forty was replying to Lord of da Rings, not you; second of all, I'm not a he; third of all, I did make a poster, it was called the HCF 2006 calendar, I did it for free, and not many people bought it; however, it's still up for sale if you look in the stickes in Off Topic.
And stuff like this is a total crapshoot when I have no control over any of the photography. But I work with what I can get.
BTW, thanks ;)

ooooh yeah! I see what you're sayin' now. I do in fact have a degree in graphic design, well, Multimedia to be more general. The fact of the matter is, I have way too much **** going on right now to do this stuff. I was really into creating sigs and stuff for a while, but I just dont have the time at work anymore.
