Mary,

My mom and dad are from southern utah. My dad lives in Parawon born there and moved back when he retired, my mom is from Beaver.

Nice carvings! You are good. I'm just getting back into it. I did it as a kid years 35 some years ago.

Mary, unless you have come up with a solution, you could go to www.fookes.com and download their free prgram "Easy Thumbnails".....I've been using it for years it's simple and allows you to size your photographs to just about any size you could want.......it needs to be simple for me to use it <grin>..........BTW. Enjoyed looking at you caricatures, very entertaining...thanks for sharing.
