Please provide a link to an example and I'll take a look. ;-)

A question for you in return?

In another group, a poster always includes a link to a website in his
signature, viz:-

http://anindianinexile.com

Do you think that he's paid by GoDaddy to advertise for them?

MID

He wouldn't tell me when I asked him - politely.

TIA

Dunno, but I'd never click on a link in a signature anyway - risky !

Your long link worked just fine; thanks. :-)

To be honest, I can't recall ever having seen such an image before - but
I've never specifically looked for same. I went looking for another type
of all around view posted by a friend of mine recently and ended up here
- a place I've never been before!
https://developers.facebook.com/docs...embedded-posts I may spend
more time exploring there later today.

Here's the view my friend posted:-

I'm fascinated by the technology which allows us to take such pictures
and transmit them around the world with so little effort!

I use an Apple computer - I don't perceive any risk in clicking on a link!

Am I wrong? If so, why?!!!

Still looks disturbingly artificial... at least when rendered to a 2D
screen,

Apple hackers are lazy or unskilled ?

Did you drag the image round to see behind you and then right around in
front of you to the left?

Here's a piccie of what Banbury was like in 2004 - my boat is the first
on left hand side.

I think hackers find it far too difficult to hack Apple devices! ;-)

Yeah - seems like a couple of plains that slide around rather thany a
linear increase in depth.

Yeah I wondered where the image link was.

Presumably you mean the first 'whole' boat on LHS ?

Nice pic, nice boats. Great sense of depth. I think I would find the
mentioned faux '3D' effect detracting from it.
