That building does have all the characteristics of an elephant, tho: elephants are well known to have 32 floors and to be 102 meters (335ft.) high.

It isn't something for beginners of course, but it isn't as complex as it looks. :-) It's a craft: the more you practice, the easier it gets. Thank you though. :-)

Thanks. :-) I am not genius enough to cut it though. ARGH STEEKING. :-)

Ha, yes, steeking sounds as a scary as home surgery! :O

If it had done the the same to David Attenborough I'd be commending the elephant, but that seems very harsh.
