Couture Neon Sign

[tek-monkey]

Have you put a filter on that pic to dim it down a fair bit? It looks more like this in real life:

I'm with Carole, I haven't noticed it either? Maybe ladies of a certain age can't see it...
Like that noisy thing that used to be outside the Stone Rd Co-op to deter teenagers.....
Maybe I've just insulted Carole as she could be nowhere near my age....
She's probably very young & glamorous...
So sorry Carole...
I'll shut up now...
Agghhh...
Sorry!

That thing is still there at the co-op isn't it?

I have no idea, I'm too old to be able to hear it!!!

No, I don't think its there anymore....not from the amount of 'youfs' that congregate in the early evening?

 

[Perrier]

it is there, my daughter hates it when i drag her to the co op or have to use the cashpoint outside. she says its a horrible loud screeching noise. shes 17, my other daughter can hear it too but not as bad and shes 20.

Yes I've used a "filter" but it's not really affected the brightness of it. It's actually brighter in my picture - hence less saturated
It didn't actually seem over-bright today in real life. Although you can see by how dark the sky is relative to the sign, it's bright.
Photograph is not the best way to judge.

the 3p message is the only message you need to read

No, you feel free to carry on.

I am much older than you but I can still scrub up well if the occasion permits.

Where does one aquire a permit

Obligatory photo:

You could have taken a picture of my bauble with your Christmas tree lens!!

 

[John Marwood]

The other, is in the Albert Hall....

 

[Toble]

How long at a time does 3p get you? Can you have animations? Can we club together for some nonesensical but humourous advert message? I'd be willing to chip in for a funny ad for sunglasses or "need tanning? just stand here for 10 minutes!"

 

[basil]

Howabout we chip in and buy it then broadcast forum live to townsfolk?........

Holy crap there's one of these at BMW garage tonight too. When the light graphics are shown it's way too bright. You can see it as soon as you come off Queensville.

It looks fine to me?

 

[wildwood]

Haha. It's facing up Radford bank tonight on my second journey. Must be revolving too.

 

[Jonah]

It looks like it's a temporary sign on some sort of trailer.

It was brighter than the sun though.

If I'd wanted to live on the Golden Mile I'd have been a tramp instead. It's a disgrace and distractingly dangerous IMO.

 

[John Marwood]

Brighter than the sun?

Really?

400 trillion watts?

Is this Spinal Tap?

 

[Gramaisc]

Watts are a measure of power, not luminosity.
