Picture for the front page

Website

I need a picture to go on the front page to the right of the about us text. It should work pretty small (200ish by 200ish) and should be one from the Gallery on here. Pick one you think represents FM and comment away!

don't know if i'd call him a 'great guy' due to his opposition to desegregation and a couple financial scandals, but it sounds like he did some good stuff, too. he was a self-admitted alcoholic, which sort of fits...

If you pick a picture, be sure to send it to Kurt for photo editing first. We would not want to offend photographers with poor lighting, bad cropping, boring negative space, lack of color, out of focus, etc etc.

I like the idea of incorporating ATL if it makes sense and its awesome. It seems to me that the 75/85 sign is the most depressing thing about Atlanta. I will scour the galleries for the right image.
