Is anyone computer savvy?? I can't seem to type in the info on my city because the dialog box pops up every time when I try to type something in the hometown section. The box says something about clipboard images and allowing the to be pasted. If anyone knows how to fix this then that would be great!

So the idea is to post photos of your city/town and try to come up with good ideas for the Detours, Roadblocks and Pit Stops? Weird. I don't know how well my city would be as a selection, but it'd be neat to see it on the show. I'll wait to see if anyone else posts for a Canadian City.
