Just wanted to give a hardy kudos to Mr. Lick and his outstanding World News In Pictures...which is closing in on an amazing 1,000,000 views/hits [in two short years]!!! I would expect this thread to go over the top by the middle of February.

This must be a record of some sort here at TD.

Has there ever been a thread that has garnered one million views, in any time measurement?

Congrats, Lick.

Keep it up!!

Davis Knowlton · 30-01-2013, 07:16 PM

Well done, Lick. It's a great thread!

BaitongBoy · 30-01-2013, 08:10 PM

Yes, I mentioned this in his World News in Pictures thread about a week ago...

Time for a special award, no doubt...

Mr Lick · 30-01-2013, 09:18 PM

Thanks for the comments guys.

WNIP is celebrating it's 2nd anniversary on Saturday 2nd Feb. The very first picture posted incidentally was a wee bit of rock throwing by the natives in Cairo so nothing much has changed there for the Egyptians

2011

This week

It truly has been a fantastic effort by the photojournalists around the world who often put themselves on the line to bring the public the news in pics as it happens so great credit must go to them for their immense contribution.

Some very memorable pics from them including the Tsunami in Japan amongst other destructive natural disasters around the globe and of course also the lighter side to life.

An incredible and surprising 1 Million views rates a big thank you to all members and others who have looked in on the thread. You are all famous.

I can't say that I have had any thoughts about retiring yet so lets keep the ball rolling

Probably one of the best threads on any forum I have viewed.

And compiled by a man in his own time and for us.

Wonderful.
