The fish pictured as my avatar is Heterandria Formosa the least killiefish, smallest livebearer in the United states. Picture is larger than life size. Males reach a lengh of 1/4 of an inch and females up to 1 inch.

Its only a bonus when it doesnt cover your monitor screen. ;)
hey I dont give out the points, we all vote on whose our favorite at the end of the week. If you find a better one you can change it, thats the entire fun of the Avatar contest. But the one you have on the last day, is the one that we vote on.

Lists of freeware image editors. GIMP got good reviews, for being a MS product. Pixia is popular, as well.

Joe, as much as I love snow it would do horrible things to the plants that grow here. Everything is torn up enough without getting snowed on too! :eek:

12-27-2005, 11:14 AM
Trying to figure a way for the poll..... The only thing i can think of is everyone list your favorite on this thread and tomorrow i will take the top 5 or so and make a poll with them......Or if anyone else has an idea (mods) let us know.

Then close that poll and pick the top 3 or 5 from that and have the final elimination poll.
I dunno...
Personally, I think mine is the best... :D
Peace...
