Very cool. I'm still eager to see how the lighting looks on Block 185.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to that. And man, I still wish they'd put some lights on Northshore. I think that building really is deserving of some good lighting. I actually like how dark the W is, though.

I agree on both your points. And I too like the Gotham look of the W.

Screenshot them or, if you're on desktop and using Google chrome:

Right click-> Inspect, go to "Network" tab, look down in the lower left for "Name" to see the image files on the page, "Preview", then right click the image to save it, open it in a new tab, or copy. Then upload it to imgur or something.

I think it’d be easier for you to upload your photos via Imgur.

Would somebody be kind enough to explain to me exactly how to upload a photo to this site? It always seemed to be beyond my skill level, but I suspect there must be a simple way to do it.

This video should also be helpful. He shows the BBcode option, and that's what you want to use for your forum post. When that opens, select that link type. Just hit the copy button. It'll highlight it green to let you know it has. Then in your post on the forum, on your keyboard, press and hold control v

That will paste the photo's link location to your forum post. That's the easiest way to do it because you won't have to write out the bbcode [img] tags yourself.

Thanks, MB and KFT. It is kind of confusing to me still, but I'll try to master it. Pretty old dog here trying to learn new tricks.

Great shots! Those from Pease Park really highlight the unique characteristics of Indeed Tower and Independent. They add a lot to the skyline. Obviously Block 185 does even more so from the south. Very cool.

Not a current photo, but a good one nonetheless.
