It's not worth splitting hairs too much. I do see yellow in the sculpture, and none in the truck in the Google Street View shot. I dunno, a couple decades of my life included visiting a printing plant to make sure that the colours coming off the presses for our maps were what we were looking for, so I'm pretty sensitive to gradations in colour.

Anyway, I can't find the old image in my files that showed a blue Dark, and I've only searched as far as page 4 on this thread for it, so if it's on page 5 of after, someone else will have to repost it.

In any case, I'll make inquiries about it and see if I can provide an update.

Cheers!

Here is the image of the art piece that will be installed at the X2 site. I believe the 2 art pieces at X condos and X2 will be called "Double Take".

No problem. I received the X2 art image from Great Gulf but was in PDF format so I just took a pic of it from my phone camera and posted it. I don't believe you can post PDF images right?

I use a free screen capture program, Gadwin PrintScreen, whenever I want to grab an image from a PDF.

Ctrl + PrtSc then Ctrl + V into paint, and cropping it works as well.

Another solution is to select "Take a Snapshot" under the Edit tab in Adobe Reader. It will automatically copy whatever you drag the field over. Then paste into paint.

Attached is a better image (I hope) of the Shayne Dark art scultpture that will be located at X2. The image was obtained from Great Gulf. I think the blue looks great against the dark cladding of the building. Plus I like that it is almost horizontal.

I understand they pushed the second tower back from Jarvis for improved views, but I kind of wish these were side-by-side.

I`m not a fan of twin but I very like those tower and that cladding, can`t wait to see these guys side by side

Here are some screen captures of the PDF image of the artwork:

I wouldn't have minded if the blue one was installed vertically like the red one to give a more 'gateway effect' to Charles St.
