well i got it ...the trunk is about 2/3 inch -1 inch thick ..so very nice...
is 16 inches tall from base of trunk...and the main trunk/branch is 24 inches long...
i think it would make an excelent cascade....but at the trunk base line it has 2 more trunks looking liek they are comin out on opposite sides...so it might be tricky for a normal cascade...so i dont know if i should cop the 2 branches but keep the main 24 Inch one...
and woudl anyone be willing to help me out on what to do when i get a picture of it taken...?
any help would apreciated..( im just so excited knowing that i got my hands on this Peace of work =])
and what size should i take the pictures with my digital camer for assistance...1600x1200
1600(3:2)
1280x960
640x480
ANy replys quick would be excelent ..and thanks again-

I dont know if this is gonna help you or not. I have MS office 2003, and it opens .jpg files in office picture manager (the replacement for photo editor). If you have this program, open your photos in it, then choose pictures, compress pictures, and choose the option for web pages. It always shrinks them to less than the 75k limit needed here.

I would dig that trunk out a little, you want those lower branches to start a little higher, hopefully you can find some more trunk in that soil. The limbs seem to be very long with foliage only on the tips, I think you will want to get those limbs a little more compact, and get it into scale with the trunk, so hopefully you can get some back budding on those limbs.

Sorry, but if I don't see a tree I cannot help you.
I cannot get through your link and I really think you should post here directly like everybody else does.
I think you will have big problems if you don't post pictures here directly to get any useful advice.

best regards
Walter Pall

Master-I-T, may I suggest you go to Irfanview.com. This is a freeware product that does the function you need. The folks here at BonsaiTalk put me on to it and it works great.
