CartLegger: ah such scenic abandon! I like the way you shot into the sun to create this stark image. Who needs detail when you have sucy outlines?

zagg: I am going of few words this afternoon: I will tbe the unpopular one and say I'd thing it would be a good idea to have registration. I do like the idea of an optional profile. I would accept the nomination of being a 'second-level editor'

zagg: it's art man, art.

in response to Robert Moses Photo Collective

zagg: eh?

in response to Midtown Manhattan on a Friday afternoon

zagg: I need's me a naked mermaid for my garden.

in response to Summer is Over

EvilGentleman: Damn, now I can't stop thinking. Maybe the authors listing should be ranked by total hits, and not by articles posted. I mean, I'm closing in on hool's total article count, yet I am nowhere near as heavily viewed as he is. If citynoise were a book website, and authors were...

in response to User Survey 2007

EvilGentleman: Oh, and "go to top" sounds good to me as well. But the floating boxes would need frames, I think. And frames = trouble, in my book. I like joey's "today in history" idea, but as a supplement to, and not a replacement of the random article section. And the random articles...

in response to User Survey 2007

EvilGentleman: Well joey, since you are my elder, I shall respect your opinion :p

in response to Robert Moses Photo Collective

EvilGentleman: I've noticed that after a month or so, the hit counter on the bottom starts becoming very inaccurate, as far as how many months or years it has been since the article was posted. If you do decide to retain the present method of recording hits, the calendar portion needs some...

joey: i second the 'go to top' button

in response to User Survey 2007

joey: maybe you're waning. we're all waning in the u. s. a. could have been a song by the clash

in response to Robert Moses Photo Collective

EvilGentleman: The dam under which I used to fish as a boy in Cornwall, Ontario was called the Moses-Saunders Power Dam. The New York State end of the dam is in Robert Moses State Park. That sure takes me back, thinking of lying in the sun on the banks of the...

in response to Robert Moses Photo Collective

joey: wow. that's a nice photo and today is the first time i've ever seen it, i swear.

in response to Midtown Manhattan on a Friday afternoon

EvilGentleman: What I find remarkable is that the Stop the MPAA sticker is in Canada, where the MPAA has no actual authority.

in response to Stop Signs

EvilGentleman: Congratulations on entering the new world of home-ownership, zagg. I have yet to get there myself, but all things in good time.

in response to This Ride Is Pimped, Yo!

zagg: Evil: Pirate is good; I moved into my first house (I've lived in houses, this is the first one that has had a mortgage under MY name) - Frederick lives in the kitchen where he protects the house and home.

in response to This Ride Is Pimped, Yo!

Bill Hammond: JoeAnn if you can download Google Earth you can enter Gated Ave, Brooklyn, NY and when it appears you can scan around and find the streets you wrote about. You can even zoom right down to the houses your mother lived in if you know the intersecting streets

in response to Eastern Parkway Memories

EvilGentleman: I hate fish. But dolphins are cool, since they are mammals. Mmmmm, fried dolphin....

in response to So Long and Thanks for All the Fish

EvilGentleman: Welcome back. Good to see posts from you again. How's the pirate doing?

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: That's one sweeeeeet ride. oooooooeeeee doggie. (imagine that with an English accent.)

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Hitchhikers Guide meets st Patricks day. Nice!

zagg: Toronto still had snow at that point? Suckers! (j/k)

in response to Darkest Cabbagetown

zagg: I have been in winter hibernation mode. My photography has been soley inside instead of outside until my winter jacket can get lost - doesn't make for much citynoise content.

in response to This Ride Is Pimped, Yo!

joey: welcome back. with all the recent bashing of the big 3 domestic auto makers, this photo says it all. where you been?

in response to This Ride Is Pimped, Yo!

CE: Anyone who knows a lot about photography, can you tell me why the black forground arrow sign turned transparent? I still ahve no idea how I did that.

in response to Verdun Neon

CE: I used to walk this street (due to always missing the bus) every morning and every night for about a month before the landlord stole all our appliances due to a bounced rent cheque on behalf of my roommate. I have many good and bad memories from my short...

in response to Verdun Neon

EvilGentleman: Hehe, I have a few ex-girlfriends in this area, know it well.

in response to Verdun Neon

upfromflames: cool! I walk past that corner everyday. Mine is the school on the next block. This graf site changes every few months, so come back!

in response to Bushwick Penguin Graf

upfromflames: a few more images of buildings in the zone, that I wanted to get in before Peter! The locked buildings are part of the abandoned housing transfer system. The decayed house front is a reno job recovery from a fire. All in the Bushwick Initiative Zone. Interviewing a rep from...

in response to The Bushwick Initiative: Holistic Redevelopment or Urban Renewal Retrofit?

EvilGentleman: Nice airbrushing technique, I think it is. I'm guessing the artist in this case also does work on custom paintjobs for cars. I've seen a similar technique used on really good flamejobs. Sometimes, the softer edges seem to pop out more than well-defined ones. What's with the green dashes on...

in response to Bushwick Penguin Graf

EvilGentleman: I don't know why, but I have this instinctive urge to step back about two feet, and make this awesome picture even better. (Although that would not actually happen, since I am nowhere near as good with night photography as groovehouse) I really wish I could have seen how the...
