Bigfoot Lodge West might also have the distinction of being the greenest bar in L.A. After a full-size replica of the original Bigfoot Lodge was built for a scene in the Jim Carrey movie “Yes Man,” Green bought the set and recycled most of it into the new space.
“All the wood on the walls and on the face of the bar is from that set,” says Green. “We used the floor of the set as the ceiling. In fact, every bit of wood in there is recycled. I got some from a friend with a tree-trimming service, and there’s a place up in Big Bear where we got the bar top. It’s our little cabin in the city.”

Originally, all photographs were monochromatic or hand-painted in color. Although methods for developing color photos were available as early as 1861, they did not become widely available until the 1940s or 50s, and even so, until the 1960s most photographs were taken in black and white. Since then, color photography has dominated popular photography, although black and white is still used, being easier to develop than color.
The advent of the microcomputer and digital photography has led to the rise of digital prints. These prints are created from stored graphic formats such as JPEG, TIFF, and RAW. The types of printers used include inkjet printers, dye-sublimation printer, laser printers, and thermal printers. Inkjet prints are sometimes given the coined name “Giclée”.
The web has been a popular medium for storing and sharing photos ever since the first photograph was published on the web by Tim Berners-Lee in 1992 (an image of the CERN house band Les Horribles Cernettes). Today popular sites such as Flickr, Picasa, PhotoBucket and 500px are used by millions of people to share their pictures.
