Talk:The Gates

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have a lot more picture of The Gates, if anyone wants them (similar to those in the article, but much higher resolution). Morris 18:26, Feb 13, 2005 (UTC)

Please add/replace some photos. The photos that are currently up are sub-par.MpegMan 00:50, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] high resolution pictures

I created a separate article (referenced from this one) with five very high resolution images of the Gates. Morris 23:47, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC) (They're in a separate article, because they take so long to load). [Now merged here.]

The previous ones weren't sub-par - about web-average, I would say. But the new ones are very good. I like the differences depending on lighting direction. I am imressed that they have managed to get 23 miles of it when Central Park is only three miles long. -- RHaworth 03:58, 2005 Feb 26 (UTC)

[edit] English version

This pale English version shows pastel pendants on the pillars of the portico of the Tate Britain [Gallery of no longer modern art] in London for In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida an exhibition installation by Angus Fairhurst, Damien Hirst, and Sarah Lucas in 2003. -- RHaworth 04:08, 2005 Feb 26 (UTC)

[edit] Photos

If anyone has photographs of the Gates taken at night, they should add them. At least one. I wasn't that impressed by the gates until I happened across them at night once, and then I told everybody (those who had and had not already seen them) that night-viewing was the only way worth seeing them.

[edit] More Photos

User:AnnaKucsma's photo

I took a photo of the Gates (taken during the day) which I love, but seems just a little too much like the ones already in the article. So I'll post it here.  — Anna Kucsma 20:55, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

I uploaded another picture today (like anyone really cares). Personally, I prefer the one at left, but I thought I'd put this one here too, anyway.  — Anna Kucsma 17:43, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
The article on Central Park was lacking information on The Gates. I added a section, and included Photo At Left.  — AnnaKucsma   (Talk to me!) 16:36, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
