[edit] Wikipedia:Wikimedia Commons
Hi. I contacted you about uploading your images to the Wikimedia Commons but I'm not sure if you saw my message or not. Please read the above link and consider the advantages and benefits of creating an account to upload your images to Wikimedia Commons so that all the multilingual projects can use them. Thanks. —Viriditas | Talk 11:34, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for your response. Are you still on Kauai? If so, we could really use some photos on the Hawaii project. I'll try and place them in Category:Kauai. —Viriditas | Talk 22:32, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'm just looking to add photos to the articles within that category - nothing in particular, although historical, archaeological, and cultural sites would be highly regarded. Thanks for your hard work. —Viriditas | Talk 00:29, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'm putting a list together for you right now. —Viriditas | Talk 08:53, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'll add the list to a sub-page of WikiProject Hawaii; ideally I want to tag all the articles needing images from Kauai. One thing that could help is any images of agriculture and food for placement in Cuisine of Hawaii. This includes, sugarcane, pineapple, watermelon, and other fields that one finds in Kauai. It would be very helpful if you could also capture images of distinctive local and regional cuisine only found in Hawaii/Kauai; For example (and these are just examples, anything will do) an image of the storefront or vegan dish at Blossoming Lotus in Kapa'a, saimin from Hamura's Saimin in Lihue, chocolate cake with haupia or coconut custard at the Beach House Restaurant in Poipu, etc. Let me know if you already have such images or if acquiring them is possible. Basically, anything having to do with food in Hawaii would be great, from fine dining to local food. Thanks for your patience. —Viriditas | Talk 12:22, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Invitation
Aloha! You look like someone who might be interested in joining the Hawaii WikiProject and so I thought I'd drop you a line and invite you! We'd love to have you help us :-) —Viriditas | Talk 01:27, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Arthur Ravenel Bridge
Yes, the Ravenel Bridge has a twelve-foot wide lane for bicycles and pedestrians (separated from vehicles by a concrete barrier). It overlooks the harbor and you can see the ocean from there too (the ocean is about five miles away). This is a good picture of people walking in the bike/ped lane. The stripe provides the separation between bikers and walkers. Walkers keep toward the white railing; bikers keep toward the concrete traffic barrier. Each may cross the line as needed to pass others going in either the same or the opposite direction. - SCgatorFan (talk) 21:47, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
