If your imaging program with allow you to do this:  Change the resolution to 72 dpi, it's probably 240 to 300 right now.  Then make the height 460.  The save as web.   And you should be good to go.

Just post them on flickr.com and you will have a variety of sizes to chose from after you upload them or you could just put a direct link from your account on here. http://www.flickr.com/

I open my pic's with "Paint", go to stretch/skew and change it to 25 for each and then save the file. That allows me to get the 6 different pic's per post limit here.

[ballista]

you know, i truely dont know- i thik muzzy makes it, its geneus though- here i got a few pics to show you- it hits as a barb, then is expandable- then twist the arrow and the broadhead unscrews and folds the bladrs up, so you can take the arrow out- pretty awesome. there it is ready for impact

ok, i got ya! i dont know what they are called, but i have seen them before. im hunting with a much simpler one. the heavy wire barbs are fixed in one possition on mine, and when you shoot something you push the point al the way through and unscrew it, and the barb folds forward, so you can pull it out. i like that one, im gunna see if i can find one.
