X isn't that hard if you have the right photos :cool:

Essex -> Xenia

Yup. I know there is one sign with two X in Eastern Spain. Too bad it's nowhere near me...
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Notre-Dame-des-Bois > Scott! (Northern Terminus of US Route 165. July 1, 2016)

I take pictures of road signs, that's about it.

General rule of thumb: Just stay in the "Traffic Control" section of the forum and you'll be fine.

That, and the blurring of certain letters that it thinks is a face or license plate.

New Cumberland to Dallas

Seriously?  That isn't GSV?
I apologize, I didn't notice.

Edit: I'm leaving the original post up for reference, the lols and so you all can make fun of me. :pan:

Alternate picture from a different angle from Wikipedia. No stretching and misalignment that I can see.

We have some new contributors to these games and challenges, so I think it's time for a reminder that if you post photos that are not your own, it's appropriate to include a citation of the source.

Just confirming but I'm assuming you mean below the sign.

In my opinion, the specifics don't matter much, but including some kind of citation does.  You can see by looking through the photo threads that there are a variety of appropriate ways to cite use of photos by others that you choose to post.
