Just random generated swirly patterns in all the colors of the rainbow.
Useless for mapping. 

Did I say it has to be used "as is" ?

Cool I live in wales, the only one Ive been to is Rhuddlan castle though, denbighshire is actually nw and not north east as the website says :o 

the pages, I find the more they lie in ruins, the more inspiring the castles are.

uploading photos from Cambodia atm, I'm really tired and the connection is pretty slow now so I probably will stop in the middle of the process and continue some other day. 

Seems like there will only be material taken before going to Angkor today.

Shame they didn't go the whole hog and have the entrance underwater though!

I noticed that if you click the 'Industrial' Journal tag link on that page there's loads of other entries full of the kind of rusty decaying stuff that usually get us quite excited :)

Also, I once spent six weeks on an archaological dig at Carew Castle in Wales. My knees have never been the same since. I am quite surprised by how few of those photos have sheep in them.

The Energia rocket used same components as the Russian Buran space shuttle, just without the shuttle. It was launched only once - in 1987 for the Polyus space battle station. That failed. The Buran shuttle only flew once, in 1988, succesfully, without a crew and did an autonomous landing on a runway.

The big pipes are crew and personnel escape tubes, I think.

I've posted some photos of my weekend in Bruges on my site, maybe they can inspire some people, quite a bit of red brick houses and gothic-ish churches...

I need to read through this thread from the beginning and archive all of these links in some better format than func_messageboard. 

here, i made it with urltoys for 30 secs
http://vondur.net/files/inspiration.txt 

that clearly is a lot better to read / remember than here on this msgboard oO

you'd need descriptions with that to be of any use.
