JAP's Profile

AGAIN, it's MY OPINION. We still live in the USA, right? Oh, wait...let me get my MAP. I can joke too - and I'm STILL entitled to my opinion. Let it go already. Okay, thanks. Take care and bye now.

I think these are ridiculous. As a born and bred NY'er, subway maps were invented for a REASON - to help people get an actual destination - not follow a map to nowhere. By sheer definition, I don't even see ow you can call these "maps". In addition to being a waste of paper - yes, even recycled paper, they are bound to be confusing to some and certainly useless to others. I'm not even wasting my time going to your the website, but I certainly hope there is a disclaimer on your home page explaining that these are not "real" maps and that you have no actual affiliation to the MTA, etc. I enjoy an innovative design / art product as much as anyone else, but these are useless and stupid. In this economy, I can think of a ton of other ways to spend my design and art dollars and stuff that is useful and that adds value to my life.

Oh, just another thought...it amuses me how much other cities / businesses name their streets, products, locations, etc. after original NYC names, ideas and abreviations. There is only one NYC. There will always only be one NYC! Be more creative, for the sake of design. Okay, I'm done now. Thanks. Bye.

I'm in search of a high-gloss wallpaper to cover a simple, oversized table that I am using as a night table. The table is a Parson's / Asian style with very clean lines and is a light blue laquer. I would prefer not to have it professionally paint it, nor do I want to do that type of work myself. I suppose a contact paper would work, however I'd like something that is heavy duty so I can wipe it down easily. The paper should mimic the effect of a laquered table. Looking forward to hearing your suggestions of products and brand names and where to order on line. Thanks!

I bought my Fu Dogs on Ebay for under $20.00. I love them. DO NOT pay more than $20.00 for these. Chinatown, NYC probably has them for even less.

Note: Since Maxine's art collection is such a comprehensive one, it makes sense that she has pale walls which keep the emphasis on the art and not colour. Well done, Maxine!
