    I thought about bearding it, but decided the idea was to make it look reasonably decent... not scare away kiddies.

    At first 'twas gonna be bristles from an old finish brush, 'cept when I went looking 'twas stuck in the bottom of a jar. I sorta got sidetracked at cleanup time last w/end. Running around in a panic (wasn't gonna chop up a new brush!) I found a cheap'n'nasty plastic hearth brush; the bristles don't feel as nice, very coarse but were the perfect colour...
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    All the pens look great so far ..... I was a little unsure about the "theme" idea at the start but it has worked really well. It is interesting to see the different variations and there are a few there that I would be interested in trying in the future.

    Hi Fireman,
    WHen I first started here Cliff told me about this program it smaller it so you can upload it real easy
    here is his letter

    go here...
    http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

    find the link on the right hand size to the Image Resizer & down load it & install it.

    It loads as a menu item on your right click button so all you have to do is piont to the pic where you stored it on your hard drive, right click & choose Resize.
    It will ask you what size you want to make it, pick the smallest.
    It is very good, it will knock out all the hi-res info & leave the picture at the same viewable size on the screen.
    Most pics end up smaller than BB 100Kb limit.
    Now all you have to do is up load the pic with the word (small) behind it.
    Easy.
