Pixelated. -- Posted by The Bartender at 8:39 pm on July 10, 2009 This is Inveraray, Argyll, Scotland. What makes it so special is the scenary, and the history. It is home to the Clan Campbell and the Duke of Argyll, who lives in the castle you can see in the photograph. During the second world war, Inveraray was used as a major Naval training area for the Royal Navy, and the remains of barracks can still be seen in the woodland areas even today. Inveraray was the first planned town in Scotland, designed by 2 architects in the 1700's. Overall, the community is amazing, with hardly any crime and trouble, everyone knows everyone and everyone loves Inveraray! -- Posted by Manipulative Acid at 4:00 am on July 11, 2009 Oooh, I'm going to enter this, if I have time.

People from all over america come to chicago every year for the sheer pleasure of being there and having been able to said that they were there. -- Posted by eklipse at 1:15 pm on July 17, 2009 Gameover. Image gone. My hometown, located in nearly the center of Maryland. Booming with life, people from every spectrum of personalities, regions of the world, and a diverse group of people. Not only is everyone different from one another, but there are ties which bring us all close together. It's a town full of stuck-up individuals, but when a true issue arises, we all stick together and fight through it. The scenery is beautiful, vivid in every aspect. Overall, it's an amazing place to live. You learn something new everyday, and wish to grasp the concepts which float about in between everyone. We are a community. -- Posted by Kinky Kitten at 2:47 am on July 18, 2009 Garden Of rememberance Dublin, This is a small garden in the center of Dublin city which is dedicated to all those irish people who died for irish freedom. The sculpture in the center is designed after children of lir, one of many irish legeds to have travelled the world. Dublin is the capital of a small country that holds no more then 5 million people yet has irish people scattered all over the world, mainly in places such as america, england and australia. Irish citizens shape the world today everywhere. Dublin's beauty cannot be summed up in one word, it is a place full of both new and historic buildings. A place where history comes alive before your eyes. Its also a place of amazing natural beauty, its greenery compels any tourist to see.
