Wow, what a whirlwind vacation! I should have taken better notes, though. Can you help me recall where I was standing when I took these pictures? (You can change manually or start a 10 sec slide show)
Source: Note: These are not actually my pics. Thank you to the Internet!

	My first attempt at Flash. I hope it works! Please comment if you have any issues. Thanks for playing!

	chriskotx:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 15:16 GMT	12 points
	SUPER Quiz, maybe the best ever. Two things though: I was so proud I knew the name Teotihuacan - do I HAVE to know it was taken from the Pyramid of the Sun? Also,....ran out of time before I even got to # 20. Can we have one or two more minutes?

	leppyfresh:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 15:58 GMT	9 points
	This is a GREAT quiz. I would have also liked an extra minute. Well done.

	Bad_At_This:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 16:59 GMT	6 points
	Absolutly fantastic!

	H0limkill:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 17:49 GMT	11 points
	Could you please accept just hollywood for Hollywood signs. Typed Hollywood letters, Hollywood hill. Didn't know they were called signs. This apart, well done !

	Brilliant quiz - I was frustrated with the pyramid because I knew what it was in concept, I just couldn't come up with the name. That is, of course, the essence of these puzzles!

	One of the greatest quizzes of all time...and I must add, apart from that arch, St. Louis is an ugly city.

	simpleerrors:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 19:06 GMT	6 points
	awesome idea. So annoyed I knew the places at the end, but it seems so weird from that point of view

	strags11:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 20:41 GMT	5 points
	Very well done, and no worries about the Flash - it worked great. It was a pleasure not having to put on my glasses and increase the magnification on my browser to 150% in order to play a Sporcle pictures quiz.

	cricket0414:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 20:51 GMT	3 points
	How the heck did you get that pic of the golden gate bridge?

	Tahnan:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 20:54 GMT	2 points
	Thanks so much for the "Hint" button--it didn't help a whole lot, but it did get me 2, 10, and 19 (the others I either already had, or else the hint didn't help). And thank heavens you didn't have to answer in order, since I got "Machu Picchu" by guessing it for #5.

	Flick:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 20:57 GMT	7 points
	Chewy, if you've left my pair of pliers, banana and bikini top half way up those bloody Himalayan mountains again, we really are going to fall out !

	Thanks all for playing! I've taken many of your suggestions into consideration. @Puckett: I've done many image quizzes before and a common complaint is that the pictures are too small and hard to see. Since these were such nice images, I thought I'd try something different, and a "photo album" look kinda worked for me.

	Brabant:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 22:16 GMT	3 points
	I like the slideshow idea. And the quiz itself is awesome! One of the best on here. Some vacation that must have been, by the way.

	Great quiz! Might I suggest a slight rotation of picture #12, just so it looks more slanted?

	Pit_trout: Christ of the Andes is a different statue (since Rio is nowhere near the Andes).

	@MrChewyPoo In my opinion, you'd have a better shot at this being published if it weren't a slideshow. People can down-arrow my comments all they want, but to my (sadly) vast Sporcle knowledge, there's never been a slideshow quiz published, probably for various reasons. If the quiz becomes popular enough, the admins/editors can make image quizzes look a lot nicer, which would include making the images large enough. I'm not saying you should change it now; I'm just giving you my opinion, which could be totally wrong. Once again, great idea for a quiz and great selection of images. I hope it does see the front page.

	MrChewypoo:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 00:02 GMT	15 points
	@puckett86: completely agreed, and I knew as soon as I decided on a) Flash and b) a slideshow it was not likely to be published. Being published is not the be all and end all of quizzes, as many here can attest to, and I really loved the feel of this one (except for the click-click) and glad you can see through that to the fun quiz underneath. As always, appreciate the input and totally agree with you!

	lisawc:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 02:39 GMT	4 points
	I loved the slide show and the beautiful selection of pictures. Kicking myself for missing Pisa and the Spanish Steps. To live in St Louis is to love St Louis.

	thestorm80:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 03:03 GMT	4 points
	Great Quiz! Perhaps also accept "l'arc de triomphe" since the " l' " just indicates that it is "THE arc de triomphe"

	gnatural:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 03:05 GMT	3 points
	GREAT QUIZ.

	teh_DR:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 04:02 GMT	3 points
	cool quiz

	bmo1616:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 04:21 GMT	4 points
	St. Louis only looks ugly in that pic because of the destruction site of the old Busch stadium.

	lalalala:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 04:50 GMT	1 point
	l'arc de triomphe didn't count? you're too picky!

	neight:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 07:02 GMT	2 points
	Vamsi is right. This is coming from someone who lives in St. Louis, nobody calls it the "Gateway Arch," just "The Arch." Not to say that I didn't get the answer, but Arch should be accepted

	Mayan:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 13:01 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz. You're a bit inconsistent with what you accept for an answer though. To accept just 'Machu' and 'Sears', but not 'Hollywood' or 'Christ'/'Cristo' just doesn't make sense.

	MrChewypoo:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 13:22 GMT	7 points
	I've made some more adjustments. There are several alternate answers, but it's tough to guess what people are going to type. I try to give more options for the harder ones to balance it out. I don't think just accepting "Hollywood" is sufficient since that's an easy one, but I accept "Machu" since, if you know that much, good on you and I won't make you try and spell "Picchu". Same with the Burj Khalifa. As for calling the Gateway Arch just "The Arch"... I live near Toronto and many locals call the CN Tower just "The Tower" as we all know what that is, but I don't think that's acceptable for a gloabally accessible quiz. Just my opinion. Thank you though very much for all the input, without you most of my quizzes would be stuck in suck!

	beatrixkiddo:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 14:42 GMT	3 points
	great quiz MrChewypoo, something different and very well executed. nominated

	ThatStarGirl:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 14:44 GMT	1 point
	Good quiz! You should specify somewhere though that you want the names of the monuments and not the cities that the view is taken of, just for clarification. And I thought the Acropolis was the Colosseum in Rome! Silly me.

	JoeFish:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 15:57 GMT	5 points
	Couldn't think of what the real name was, so I typed "Statue of Jesus" and it worked! Thanks for accepting that ;-)

	MghtyRoach:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 16:03 GMT	4 points
	Absolutely brilliant, and well done with the Flash (Bugger all the mac users!)

	RuBarb:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 16:52 GMT	3 points
	EXCELLENT

	dlte:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 19:54 GMT	6 points
	It would of funny if the Pisa picture was leaning.

	Geo1:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 21:43 GMT	2 points
	One of these days I'll learn to spell Machu Picchu...

	Ackbar:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 22:55 GMT	3 points
	Can you accept Millenium Wheel for the London one. I eventually got it, but I had to think a lot. It's too late in the day for that. I think the might might have officially changed from Millenium Wheel, but that's what they were calling it when I went there and it was being built.
