    More pics please!!

    I'm in the process of designing my pool right now and need some ideas. I'm not big on the fake-rock-Flintstones-meets-Gilligan's-Island-lagoon thing and I don't want to go with the standard kidney-shape either. I prefer something more "geometric" (I think) but I don't want to just do a big rectangle.

    Give me some ideas!

    (See below for an example of what I mean by the "fake-rock-Flintstones-meets-Gilligan's-Island-lagoon" thing. Ugh! This belongs at Disneyland, not in my backyard.)

    I think you just penned the screenplay for the next summer blockbuster movie.

    Would you consider this Gilligan's-Island-Lagoon? I think you would. I like it. :(

    Here's a couple of my pool. I'm in North GA mountains.

    From the deck: 32 ft vanishing edge on opp.side. Spa spilling into pool on left with cave underneath. Slide coming off another deck of my house on right. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/monkeyravedave/detail?.dir=mail&.dnm=939e.jpg&.src=ph

    Here's one from top of the slide:

    One more: view towards the house

    send them to yourself and it will say "make pictures smaller" and then save them to "my pictures" and put them on from there.

    Thanks Stranglove. No, slide doesn't hurt at all, unless u go down it with three chicks on a float pad, then lots of elbows, knees, headbutts, etc.. The slide was built with walls, packed with dirt, re-barred, & poured with shotcrete, just like the pool. Then, the surface is made of pebble-shaped tile (the gray pieces you see ) and painted with a sealer , similiar to concrete sealer... makes it slick. The slide is fun, but a little dangerous
