What the pictures are doing

On 24 October 2026 five home tiles changed, and the older plates named below are no longer the files on the home. The monthly close is the Federal Reserve branch on Allen Parkway, photographed by Tony Webster under CC BY 2.0. July is the round hall and white roof at NRG Stadium, a public domain photograph from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, cropped to the roofs. Payday is the blue canopies at the downtown transit center, a public domain photograph by WhisperToMe, cropped above the buses. The return is the Mickey Leland Federal Building, photographed by Tammra under CC BY 2.0. The price is the original Ninfa's sign on Navigation Boulevard, photographed by JaseMan under CC BY 2.0 and cropped to the sign. Those five frames carry no plate, no wash, and no digits. Discovery Green and the Ship Channel bridge stay on the home.

An earlier home opened on Hermann Park Municipal Golf Clubhouse, with the words Hermann Park on a white plate at the top of the frame. Market Square Tower under construction stood for the bank match on that earlier home. Discovery Green still stands for a week on the home. The Niels Esperson building stood for the sales tax rows and is not on a live page now. The Ship Channel bridge stands for the dates on the home. Williams Tower stood for the price on that earlier home. Rice and Lovett Hall stood for the July question on an earlier page, and that plate carries no digits.

Each interior page uses a photograph that no other page uses. The return page is Chase Tower. The dates page is the downtown skyline. The questions page is the Museum of Fine Arts. The page about Steven Palmieri uses the Hobby Center, and the portrait on that page is a photograph of Steven Palmieri, kept with the practice, and it is not a Commons file. The handoffs page is the exterior gap at Pennzoil Place, not the atrium. The access page is Main Street, and that file is used once. The one person page is the University of Houston Downtown campus beside the bayou. The payday page is the Toyota Center entrance. Buffalo Bayou is the school and sales picture. The lobby page is the Old Place at Sam Houston Park. The price page is the Fourth Ward Cottage. The book page is the George R Brown Convention Center. The thanks page is the Broken Obelisk. This credits page is St John Church with the skyline behind it.

An aerial silks performance, a hall in New Orleans, a bicycle kiosk, and the Pennzoil Place atrium were downloaded and were not published, because a picture on these pages has to be the place the sentence names. Object still lifes from an earlier pass, including books, clips, cards, a bell, and sticky notes, were also left off the live pages. Small type on a photograph fails the size rule, so those files stay off the pages. No client records appear in any picture.

The license and the plates

Read the license and the plates

The live photographs come from Wikimedia Commons under CC BY 2.0, CC BY 3.0, CC BY 4.0, CC BY-SA 2.0, CC BY-SA 3.0, CC BY-SA 4.0, CC0, or public domain, and the photographer is named above. Each picture is one download. A file is never stretched across two tiles and never repeated on a second page. The plate is white, with a violet edge and a yellow bar, and the type is large. A single light wash sits on the photograph so the picture stays readable. No client records, no account numbers, and no prices appear in them.

If a credit on this page is wrong, call the footer number and the line will be corrected on the page. The portrait is the only picture of a person who is named. The other pictures are places a person can go and stand in front of. The practice keeps the list of files with the build so a later pass can see which photograph belongs to which page.

Interior pages each keep one picture tied to that page. The return page uses Chase Tower. The dates page uses the downtown skyline. The payday page uses the Toyota Center. The school and sales page uses Buffalo Bayou. Nothing on a later page is a second crop of a home photograph. That is the whole of the picture rule on this site.
