LA-cam ARCHIVE PHOTOS

Here are some notable Webcam photos from the early days of ElectricEarl.com.   Click on a thumbnail to see the original full-size image.   The older ones are 320x240 pixels in size.   Starting in Spring of 1998, the size of the LA-cam was increased to 576x432, then reduced to 448x336 in order to speed download times.

Some of the archive photos have a jagged edge along the right-hand side.   That's a palm tree (sometimes covered by ivy).   It was cut down on August, 13, 2004.

* The large "generic" photo makes a nice desktop "wallpaper."   This photo, which is from 3-8-98, was purposely saved without a date stamp.

When the site first started, is was called "electric LA" and there was no LA-cam.   Instead, the homepage consisted of a large animated GIF of the "electric LA" logo, plus a few icons.   Click on this thumbnail to see the animation.
