It's just verticle is all.

^ Technically, no, if you flip it 90 degs, it's still way bigger. Proximity. It's all about location, location, location Meh whatever..

I think that the sign appears so much bigger than the other one, due to the relatively close proximity of the photographer. The other sign appears so much smaller as it seems to be across the street possibly from the vantage point of the camera. Or, it's because BMW likes showing off how big they can get

Perspectives don't work like that, but still BMW's sign is larger, about double the square meters of Audi's I'll modify the perspective so we can make a better measurement

Oh for GODS SAKES ! Sarcasm follows: You guys win, there is NO way someone taking the picture wasn't closer to the ****ed sign ! Sheeesh, funny in 47 years I know not a freaking thing.

The sign on the right is closer, mssseee

Play nice.

That's your only warning, guys. Keep it civil.

Big sign is big?!

Maybe they need to compensate for some thing..... or at least BMW drivers do.

red lines. Yes the distance makes it seem bigger. And it does, that's why the usually height of the sign looks bigger. But look at the circles, it's the end of the usually length of the stand...sign extends far below it. Yes...it's closer...but it's still bigger

Why is everyone focusing on the size of the billboard. The joke "checkmate" has NOTHING to do with the size of the billboard.

 

[wafflehammer]

yea i know...and yes i know it's making a joke about chess..saying "your move" then the reply of "checkmate". good joke ,yes...use of a huge billboard...yep...
