Wow it's almost as if it's moving. The red border you used connects with the red lines of the building well.
Beautiful building. Though what happened with the font?

Thanks for the review my friend. You are prbably right about the font. I gues I must have left it bold and got blinded by the red X . It happens sometimes that I can't see an obvious error untill someone opens my eyes to it because I am distracted by another feature and this time was the X matching the border and building lines

Such interesting choice of architecture, this is definitely unusual, to me at least.
The rich green and blue of the glass is very nice against the lighter parts of the building, and the strong red lines give it that unusual sort of feel.
Plus the sky, especially where the clouds are slightly broken apart, looks great.

aaaa....the tone is just fantastic!!!...i have never seen a colored border works so gooddd..damn it...another fav. hehe...the facade of this building looks as if it's a focus point/a landmark... for the city...it marked the location w/ an "X" and claiming the property as it own!...hehe i love this...

BaciuC In reply to vietkatthroughlense [2006-04-12 00:23:13 +0000 UTC]

hehe, thank you very much mate . Might be somthing like and landmark since this is part of one of the most emblematic points in Madrid . Also the building is leaned on the face with the X ( similat to the tower of Pisa ) towards another identical building that is leaning towards this one .... somth like two drunk men leaning one towards the other
