Here's the mirror...

Should be a bit faster as I don't use my site for anything but project hosting and a few blogs and forums.
Edit-I got speeds of around 500 kbps on it.

The very last background package should be arriving soon. The goal is to get a total of 1100 photographs.

The highest priority photographs that I don't have yet but which I plan to get of are
-beaches
-amusement parks

The interior of buildings are very difficult to take photographs of because a) there are rules prohibiting photograph, b) the camera doesn't get a wide enough angle to see much, and c) it's generally too crowded, so don't have very high hopes for requests of interiors.

If you still have any requests that haven't been met yet or if you have any additional requests, tell me within five days on this thread. (I still remember that I'm supposed to take photos of typhoon breakers though, so don't worry. =w=)

I think i'll sound rude and arrogant if I'd ask you to take this:

the staircase/stairwell./stairs of that ^building....preview #4....from ground floor and the 1st floor....or should i say, the approach or the 1st step of a staircase/stairwell/set of stairs....

I already have those. Here are some smaller photos (800x600) for now. I'll release the higher resolution ones with the rest of the background package later.

This pack of photos is incredible. I really want to make a game simply so I can use them. XD

Would it be possible to get a few more photos of your hotel room at a more level angle? The ones you have are from this sorta top-down-ish sort of view. (EDIT: I'm a noob. :D I found one in there that I missed the first time around) Also, could you also get one of the room with the lights off and the TV on?

Thanks! :D

To whoever it was that wanted the graveyard photos...

Note: Samu-kun takes absolutely no responsibility for any vengeful spirits that may haunt you for using these.

Oh and I was wondering (if you're still taking requests) that perhaps you could snag some photos of military equipment or something? I know when I was in Japan a few army trucks drove by me and my tour group once. I think that'd be a useful photo(s).

Samu-kun: -bows- Thank you for the graveyard photos.

It's okay, vengeful spirits are probably already haunting me for even making this game. -insert Beato laughter-
