Here are a few pics of my Northwest Artifact (Totem Pole). It is 6 feet tall, has a 7-1/2 foot wingspan and uses about 20,000 bricks and plates.

(...) Then there should be a feature for an uploaded MOC to be rated 1 - 10 or something in a poll. Something really quick and easy-- look at the ESPN poll on the front page.
