View Full Version : Guess the pic...

Well we have three words daily as one possible source of entertainment so here is another :eyebrows:

The rules are simple, you have to guess what the picture is actually of. The idea is you select a picture & crop it so you only have a small sample of the overall picture & everyone else who participates takes guesses at what it is.

The person who guesses correctly then does the same & selects a totally different picture & repeats the above ;)

It's dead easy & a good bit of fun. Please make sure you host the pictures off site on some form of image hosting site, no need to waste valuable forum space or empty Marcos wallet to pay for it :lol:

So straight to it, what's this?

I think you mean Taipei 101? No, but you are on the right track :eyebrows:

Apologies for the small pic, but the original which i'll post once someone gets it is 750 pixels plus..

Reid Malenfant
07-11-2010, 21:14
Is that hole an important part of what ever it is?
:lolsign: Well no, but it depends on how you look at it. I have seen lots of things that do the very same & have sunken holes in the same position, possibly to hold things?

No, but it is a chair :eyebrows:

I can see that i'll be plastered by the time someone gets it, if they do, so i'll more than likely reply in the morning unless it's uncovered inside of a half hour...

Look at it.... :eyebrows: Think...

In space there is no gravity so things kind of ***** about in the lack of gravity, they go here, they go there - but only if air currents move them :)

It's part of the back of a very fast car that featured on Top Gear a couple of years ago. The grills are very distinctive.

HighFidelityGuy

is it a ultima?

No but you're along the right lines. It's a striped down hard core enthusiast car. No stereo, no ABS, no airbags. It doesn't even have inertia reel seatbelts. But it does have a BMW V8, sequential manual gearbox and 625 horses. :eyebrows: And no, it's not a BMW. It was designed by a Dutch chap and built in Banbury, UK.
