Naked Vegas - A Happy Ending

This is the final shot of our new back yard. We got the survey results on the new house today, and while a few minor things need work, it looks good, so a happy ending to our house hunting.

 

This is also my last tongue in cheek play at getting unearned views. Flickrs stats are such a complete mess at the moment that I figured I may as well play around, and see how high I can go.

 

I'm also taking another sabbatical from Flickr. I've tried to adapt to the 'upgrade', but it seems to be getting worse rather than better, at least from my usability perspective. The groups and stats, which were some of the last things working after the 'upgrade' are now a mess as well. I really like the format and the customer service at Ipernity, but while the community is nice, I miss the deeper roots of my contacts and network over here. So I'm stuck with a foot in each camp, but don't really have time to be active in both. I keep hoping that Flickr will get it's act together, make the new format more user friendly, and embrace some level of consumer facing design. That doesn't seem terribly likely in the short term, so I think a break is in order again. I'll pop in and visit from time to time.
