"As a newcomer to Birmingham, I have relied on others to show me my new home and nothing has done a better job than the Magic City Flickr Group. His work on the Birmingham Wiki as well as his photographic documentary of the city is beneficial to everyone. Thanks to Dystopos' tireless work in putting a face on the city and making this a great, active group."

"As far as per capita members and photos go, I am proud to say that Birmingham, Alabama is on the map. I invite all of you to check out the Magic City group which is playing way over its head compared to Atlanta, its much bigger sibling to the east. Our success is attributable to a great creative community and the tireless work of our leader, Dystopos. {Posted to FlickrCentral thread on hotbeds of photography}"

"Dystopos has done fantastic work as administrator for the Magic City group. I think the growth of the group in members and the growth of the group pool in pictures has been a direct result of his tireless efforts to invite people to add their pictures to our group and be a champion of Magic City in general. Thanks for all your work!"
