    Default There Here!!!

    Just picked them up and as of now floating them in my tank. Can't wait to see them. I will post later after work and after I figure how to re size my pics. They look fantastic. I just wanted to thank everyone for a chance at this challenge and Kenny and Forrest for these great looking fish.

    Congratulations Jim.
    If your looking for an image resizer, check this one out. It's free and I've used it for years, it's a good one.

    Ok, I had to work late and then pick up my wife's new puppy. They have settled in very nicely and are little pigs. I will try the re sizer another time but for now here is some pics.







    I wanted to add that I have already won, receiving these beautiful fish. Now I know why you should buy from a sponsor.

    Hi Jim,
    Good luck with the challenge mate.
    Great looking fish already. Can't wait
    to see them grow out.
    I like the background on your tank , different colour.
    Is it paper ?
    Regards

    Hey Jim. Pretty damn exciting isn't it? Yours are looking good. If they were like mine, they came through with flying colors.

    Thanks all, This is really exciting with the great looking fish and than a new puppy. These fish converted my wife over. She thought free fish (probably not very good looking fish) but told me that anyone who received them has already won. She was really impressed with them. Maybe I can work another tank into the house!(lol) I better not push my luck.

    Hi Jim,
    I editted your Pictures so instead of them just giving a link to where they are hosted, They actually show in your thread.

    To do this use this code...

    Xhttp://i607.photobucket.com/albums/t...j/100_0322.jpg@

    where X =[IMG] and @ =[/IMG]

    Theres a short cut icon for this that looks like a Mountain with a Sun above it when you are composing the post.

    Hth,
