do you think it'd be possible to make the largest size available to the public that don't have flickr accounts?

MONDAY! This was taken on MONDAY! It just goes to show you how absolutely SCREWED you were if you showed up on Tuesday looking for a place to camp.

Good question....for the first time they filled the city. They began to ask that we take the extras into our village since we had the space. I am guessing they will add another street....As for the layout that's done by the volunteer crew who is there a month earlier....and who are still out there now erasing every trace...

Wow, that's fantastic!!! I can see myself standing with some friends outside Pink Mammoth. (8:30 & Fate)
Will we be seeing this photo integrated into Yahoo/Google Maps, or, better yet, Google Earth?

I love that we have our own version of the pentagon ... now if only we could fake an airplane crashing into it, like our government did.

I especially like the 2 water trucks you can see and the dark road left behind them (on the inner and outer rings) :)

do you have a version of the ikonos photo that would not be as over-exposed (burned)?
