Just heard a report on TV 8 that an elevator cable snapped at Paris Las Vegas and the elevator fell about 15 floors before the breaks finally stopped it. Four people were trapped inside, but were rescued okay.
I'm sure these are dumb questions, for most of you, so sorry if they are. I've had this laptop for about a year and a half, and for some reason I could never get my pics downloaded on my computer. I finally got it to work a couple days ago. I took a few unique pics of City Center last month and would like to post them, but I'm not sure what the best photo sharing website would be? Flickr seems popular. Is that a good choice around here. mdiederi and jazfingr, your input would be welcome, for sure, as well as anyone else.
Probably as much as which site, I'm wondering something else basic. If I put my pictures on a photo sharing site to post here, will all my photos therefore become public? I'd rather not have my family photos be openly accessed, if that makes sense. In fact, I'd like to also be able to send family photos to friends, and not have them be open to public consumption, but still be able to post Vegas photos here. I imagine that's possible?
I have used smugmug for years and am happy with it. I never tried any of the other ones but am sure they have similar features. You can make galleries public or private, password protect galleries, hide them so only people that know the link can see them, or even make it so you are the only one that can view them.

I guess that's where I'm a little unclear. Is every pic you put there part of one gallery? In other words, can I make some pics on these sites public, while keeping others private? Or if I make my Vegas pictures public, do all my family pics become public, also, because they are by default part of the same gallery? I looked around at a couple sites and couldn't tell without registering.
haha i forgot abou that one - the glass on PH looks alot different than the rio red glass.... im thinking because you can see thru the red at PH and rio is opaque -
Tram and what it does to the Monte Carlo Pool. See how it, and the building to the west will have to go right next to the pool and take away so much sun. I can only imagine the sunbather's concerns. I'm thinking the Monte Carlo staff is buzzing to itself, "second class citizen".
Is that the convention center on the left?

I'm really curious to see how the lighting will work when everything's up and running. As a peek view, the reflections in the Aria glass should be pretty cool, but what will happen to that once the complex is lit up, inside and out?
Sadly, I think a lot of this will be lost on most viewers, anyway. I know some of you really like the Veer, but to be honest it's going to take away a lot of cool views what would have been a fascinatng looking facility. I can't imagine much will really be seen from the strip. This view from Monte Carlo will more than likely be the best views of entire Center, but PH should offer some alternately fascinating angles of view.
We're going back in July, but we'll be staying at the Mirage and the Bellagio(with a fountain view), but I'll still try to get some additional shots around the strip now that I can actually do it.
^^^ nice new perspectives! thats interesting to see how they are really butting into monte carlo
citycenter.com has a couple of interesting things not mentioned here before..... you can now see each hotel's logo / font style....also under veer they have some renderings showing unit views --- the unit facing the other veer tower kinda gets a crappy view of a yellow grid about 25 feet away - interesting note: the veer towers will has blue and read horizontal stripes on the corners
also vdara sections has some animated renderings of the exterior - each tower section uses that same animation mgm used awhile back for their promo where everything is scattered and flies in to create a room etc.
side note: they are not refering to the mall as the crystals, all i found was "retail component"
newportloftslv.com only has a welsome page with NO LINKS
cosmolv.com 'launch site' button does nothing
and when you google sky las vegas and go to its website, you get a message stating the site might harm your computer
