Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    The words insight and incite are pronounced the same. But one of them will get you banned and the other will not. Before hitting the Submit button be certain which of the two better describes your post.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pic of the week game

There is a Big Injun right up the road from me. Old picture, but he's still there. He was moved here from The Enchanted Forest amusement park in Portage, Indiana when it closed in 1991.

When it was first made he said something like ''How, welcome'', today it could be more likely interpreted as ''Whoa, back off stranger''. :D
 
I don't have any pictures of traffic, malls, or warehouses. There are some areas of great beauty in our small state, but I have limited pics of such.
Going with this - Asbury Park. Famous and infamous depending on the decade. Often mentioned by Springsteen.... Beach is a given.
If visiting our beaches, the quickest way to be pegged as an outsider is using the term "down the shore" when referring to going to or being at the beach.

I'm undecided as to which one to use so I'll just eenie meenie miny moe and chose this one since I haven't brought pictures of the GS out recently. There are many covered bridges in Ohio but there are two I really like riding by/through. Here's one that still crosses a small stream but isn't used any longer

They only thing that came to my mind is a really big racetrack just down the road (I-95) from me. So I am recycling a pic taken back when I was hosting Stator.

Man, tough to vote this week. Too many great pictures here. I think I'm leaning toward Daytona. Dpep for me this week...
 
Although it's a great pic, I'm not sure how Jedz pic fits the theme?

And because the game is about the theme and the photography...I gotta go with Dorkburger....great shot!
 
Jedz123 gets my vote, we used to get Big snow falls around here but there is no global warming...

A lot of great photos this week, with all of them clearly meeting the theme...but there are two...

...two that just made me stop and go, "Wow."

Jedz123 (Justin) and Redman (Dave) have both submitted wonderful photos. IMO
Both have excellent light, clearly defined subjects, solid composition, and......depth.

In the end, by a very close margin, mostly due to the leading lines, I give my vote to Redman.
