Welcome to the forum, tomj.
Glad your stuff made it, nice specimens.

Is that a sucker I see growing in the last pic?

If you host your pics here, or on Flickr.com (among others), you can select the size of pic that you want to post.
Easy as pie.

Good to hear they made it!

Picasa is a good photo editing program for average needs. ( free from Google )

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
