    Saw this and thought how it could easily be used to highlight some good photogs and decorate some of the ugly vacant buildings around Dublin at the moment.

    Anyone got a bare shopfront there that they want to dress up?

    cool but it takes a local council that are open to ideas (not saying that dublin's isn't).

    It could be a really lovely idea - but yeah, generally local councils are a bit reluctant arts-projects-wise. Shame really

    I seen something along those lines during the summer.
    I think it might have been in Rathmullan, outside Letterkenny.

    Instead of photos, the local school produced art work to place on the boarded up windows of empty shops.

    A great idea, and can look great. However one of the windows was painted with a "Closing Down Sale" sign - maybe not what the council was after. :-)

    I didn't get a photo of it as it was raining too heavy to risk getting the camera out.
