So in theory, if I found a picture of route 19 crossing route 20, it would only count as 19 ? :sombrero:
I like the way you think!!  I mean, you can get some hypothetical bonus points, but yeah let's just keep it as one photo.  That would only count as a 19

We had an earlier game, for photos showing markers with consecutive numbers. So if you wanted extra credit for consecutive-number photos, that ship has sailed.

I don't know how to do anything beyond MSPaint, but I thought it was worth it.  Now here's my 92.  Excited to get past 100!

Avatar is the last interesting highway I clinched.

I didn't think 83/84 would count as two, but I posted it anyway :p

One of my favourite signs:


Northbound Osborne St approaching 'Confusion Corner'

The intersection is appropriately called "Confusion Corner".  :-D

I picked the right time to check out this thread; this is one of the only sign photos that I've taken myself.
Davenport, IA -> Valparaiso, IN -> Ames, IA -> Orlando, FL -> Gainesville, FL -> Evansville, IN

I've been playing this game with myself for years - I have a personally-taken photo of every number up to 362 right now.

Same here.  I'm only up to 255, but also have a whole lot 257 and up.  http://www.teresco.org/pics/signs/numbers/ in case anyone's interested.

I think the old AARoads whitelist entry to allow hotlinking to here from my site is still broken.  Otherwise, I'd be happy to have people link to mine for this game.
Photos I post are my own unless otherwise noted.
