I'm impressed Jocke.

I didn't think you took a picture I thought you did it all with photoshop.

You take nice pix Jocke and I'm sure with a bit of thought you could make the thread headers a little nicer to read.

I wouldn't call it a Turd. But if all my Turds came out like that, I could sell all of my s%^& and make tons of money.

Great PIC Jocke.
