It's on Mitchell Street between the bowling club and the nursery... just around the corner from the old Station. Not sure what the old one is doing at the moment. Never thought to ask.

Mate, what are you using to resize/process your images. You seem to be losing alot of quality - given your equipment, you could be getting a better result I've found a couple of nice simple methods, depending on whether I'm doing a few, or many.

Kyle... the last two pics were with a crappy (dying) old Ixus 400. The parade pics are with the EOS. I'm using Paintshop Pro. I'm no expert but at least the pics are getting online.
