The press relations person at TakeGreatPictures.com never gives up. “We invited mayors of cities from around the nation to submit photos,” she said. “And the photo by Reno’s mayor, um … [rustling paper sounds] … Jeff Griffin was selected to be on our site.” Griffin’s photo of Reno is swell: “As night falls, the casinos and other attractions light up downtown Reno. We are a vibrant, growing city on the western slope of the Sierras [sic].” Griffin’s future as a flack is probably more secure than that of the chick at TakeGreatPictures.com, where dozens of gazillion-byte photo files are lumped on the same page so viewers can enjoy waiting 10-20 minutes for it to load. The site has frame problems, confusing buttons and a hideous layout. Still, you gotta love our proud mayor and his willingness to endlessly promote Reno.
