Title: Some Hawaii shots...
Post by: TheStranger on December 01, 2009, 02:20:47 PM
Went on vacation there recently and have a few sign/shield pics for everyone.  Some old button copy left around, an interesting style of exit number signage, and a few font oddities.

Holy carp, Batman, even Hawai'i is using Clearview now.

Yep - actually, most of these same shots are on my site as well (along with many others), and I even captured Clearview of my own!  (Back in 2008.)  http://www.alpsroads.net/roads/hi

P.S. I'm not moving the photos this time, but in the future, these posts ideally belong in Member Albums.  (Create one at a free site!)

The Clearview sign looks like the font is too big and that there is not enough space between lines.

Clearview + Lack of space between lines = UGLY.

AlpsROADS: Can you easily transfer stuff from an existing photo album elsewhere to this forum's Member Albums?  Would be much easier than having to upload everything a second time...

What you do is you host them externally (like you're doing now), but you set it up like a photo album.  Then you provide the link in Member Albums, we all go check it out, and hey wow, photos!  You can post a teaser photo or two if you like, as well.
