    Post pics/photos here that you don't see everyday, pics that make you go 'wow', and pics that leave you speechless. Tell us a little bit about the image, even if it's just a short sentence stating where it is.

    this is haley emy bickers... and she makes me go, 'wow' among other things.

    there was a long and tedious search across the internet for who this fox really was. some of you will recognize her as the firefox girl as the firefox logo was photo shopped onto her shirt... an ultra small minority of you will recognize her as the internet explore girl... which if you think about it... was such a degrading thing to do to her image. for shame....

    Sinkholes fascinate and scare the crap out of me, not the small ones that appear in roads, but the giant ones that swallow up land, buildings etc

    I don't know much about this picture, but I think that it's one of the best pieces of photoshopped art that I have ever seen.
