This is a strange one. Stuff like this is always hard. I love the idea though, just when it comes to photography it is a bit strange. I think it just needs some context. Technically it is terrific.

I know, it sucks bad. It was the only idea I had. I need to get some real ideas.

Depicts the acronym well but has little interest to the casual observer, I'm afraid.

I guess since I know what COBOL is I should give you at least a 7. Nobody else will! hahahaha

Image conveys the title, but isn't terribly compelling or interesting ... just looks like a screen shot/capture to be honest.

Great detail...I don't know what COBOL means, but I'm guessing it has something to do with the dots of the letters printed?

ACK!!! Not COBOL!! Is that still in use? Was this snippet followed by 1,000,000 more lines of code? Thanks for the memories and the grin.

You must be my age; Maybe younger. Done this in 1981 at the university of Arkansas.

8+2 = 10

Good luck

COmmon Business Oriented Language!!! I remember waiting 10 min for a "Hello world" compile on college!!! Argh!!!

As a picture, it is nicer than what the thumbnail forebode. However it still lacks a bit of interest IMHO.
