Wow, I absolutely love the one of MF's first hill through the trees... A perfect combination of nature, haze, darkness, and most importantly, coaster, which makes for an all around perfect wallpaper. It's a definite keeper! :)

I can't decide which I like the best. I am going to have to alternate between the dark MF pic and the WT montage for a couple days to decide. The WT pic in the haze is pretty awesome I agree. This is going to be a tough decision. I wonder if Jeff took all of the pics himself.

Of course I took them... I certainly wouldn't steel them and present them as my own.

I get an image that says:

Sorry, this image may only be viewed from Guide to the Point.

If you had a friend who was a tightrope walker and one day you are walking down the street with him and he suddenly tripped & fell, that would be completely unacceptable.

You have an ad blocker or a firewall up, don't you?

Jeff, can you actually develop photographs on onto metal? j/k ;)

No, it has nothing to do with a firewall on my end. I have a spot of code that checks the referrer for the JPEG request. If the referrer is anything other than guidetothepoint.com, it serves the ultimate image. I have this in place because I got tired of serving bandwidth-leeched images to other sites.

A few "security" products will strip out the referrer from your browser requests, which will cause you to get the alternate image.

Here's some info regarding the problem from CoasterBuzz.

Yeah, I know about the CB one because that's why I thought it was a firewall problem.
