Well I decided to keep it and do a restyle on it. The work was done a few weeks ago. I've always been very partial to the chinese penjing style of bonsai, and that's what inspired me to style this tree this way. After six years I had had enough of waiting to see just what this tree was going to do for me. As I mentioned earlier, the top was really bugging me for most of the time I had this tree. I now have eliminated that problem with the bush look up there, and have kept the tree very simple in branch structure.
I know there are those that don't care much for the penjing style, but for me it really excites me, and again so does this tree now. I will work on it now with time and try and balance everything out. The pot you see is the pot that it is now in except I did make it more shallow by virtual than it really is because this is where I hope to have it in a few years.

I like it.
Maybe the right branches should be bended down more. It would add some more "Penjing contrast" IMO.
