I've seen multiple prints from various points in a run and have yet to notice a difference. Not saying that it's not possible just saying I've never experienced it.

I have a question, after you log in to paypal, does anything come afterwards? I just try logging in and then nothing changes but it seems like everything was done. Was my order completed? I did it twice so will I be charged twice as well?
Btw I hate to be 'that guy' but isnt there a mistake in the print? So the top right corner is meant to be behind the fire hydrant right? But looking from the top-bottom, you'll see water above the corner which would imply that the corner is in front of the hydrant....right?

I have no idea how to look at something from the top-bottom, but I think if you look at the ground in the print, it will correct your perspective.LMG wrote:I have a question, after you log in to paypal, does anything come afterwards?

Oh, I meant from the top to the bottom. So I tried doing what you said and looking at the ground, everything's fine. But then start tracing the line upwards; now if that corner was really meant to be further away from us, shouldn't it continue up to the very top?thekharmainitiative wrote:I have no idea how to look at something from the top-bottom, but I think if you look at the ground in the print, it will correct your perspective.LMG wrote:I have a question, after you log in to paypal, does anything come afterwards?
