I'll have someone else do it while I'm at work. And then I won't send the cops.

Renoir is so #$!&@ lame. at least a dozen Impressionists who should be way famouser than this cat

[WheelsFellOff]

[Houshphandzadeh]

Soutine
Caillebotte
Manet
Mancini
Morisot
Sisley
Marin
Chase
Pissarro
Lumberton

I ran out but all those dudes pwn Renoir and his boring plump ladies

[WheelsFellOff]

10/12, not bad. You got Manet but forgot Monet and Degas though. (Or did you consider them already more famous than Renoir?)

B-

[Houshphandzadeh]

yeah, I kinda figure Monet and Degas are already pretty big deals.

so is Manet I guess, but a bit underrated imo

I've always been slightly smirking when I see that my BSG status is "Dropped Anchor" - that's slang in my world.

Yo, Kid, did you "drop anchor" with that honey you workn at the bar last night?

I look at everyone that doesn't have MVP and think "effing freeloader"

We can't all post 20K-30K or be moderators.

that has nothing to do with that designation

what does it have to do with?

I really don't know or care, I just **this post brought to you by Philly the Kid** seeing "Dropped Anchor"!

Donations

Since a number of people expressed interest these new board, and said, "Hey, I'll contribute $x" to it", we added the option to make a donation via PayPal.

We're only taking donations up to the amount needed to cover hosting and domain costs, which have already grown (from $195 to $350) for the first year. If we end up collecting more, we'll earmark it for future expenses.

Anyone who makes a donation will get listed on the site, and will get the rank "BSG MVP" listed under their username.

With regards to the PayPal setup. This is a new system, and it may have a few bugs. We recommend holding onto your email receipt until you show up on the donor list and with the rank associated with your username.

If you have any questions, please email donations AT BackSheGoes DOT Com.

The "BSG MVP" rank is our own (site admins) doing. It's a manual process where we've been matching up the email addresses Paypal gives us with registered email addresses. We don't have the information about anonymous donors, because PayPal doesn't record that information.

When all that donations get processed by PayPal (which should be next week sometimes), the donor list will be generated on the site (you can see the "framework" for it on the main page now). Anonymous donors won't be listed.

If you made an anonymous donation, and you don't want the BSG MVP rank, just let me know, and we can remove it at your request.

Who would make a donation to the board and not want the credit as an MVP? I don't want to know anyone that selfless.

Renoir is so $#@! lame. at least a dozen Impressionists who should be way famouser than this cat

i went there on sunday. there are some pretty girls that work the front desk(s).

that one piece where you look through the door at the naked dead woman is so weird. i also cant stand the contemporary art. a circle of rocks? a pile of dirt on some mirrors? a yellow square?

[Houshphandzadeh]

I ogle them five days a week

lol at grotewold talking smack on the women then recanting

[CalvinBall]

also, the room with the hell like paintings which are more like scribblings of penises and names of greek gods.

etant donnes is definitely a weird thing. kinda hate duchamp in general, though.

contemporary art is a bitch. there is some that I love but huge volumes of it that is just so stupid.

[CalvinBall]
