If you remember our late dear friend and member, Barb Dumas, you might enjoy looking at the classified ad for my 21st Century Bow (now sold).

Well done, Bernie, Roger and Barb.
Roger, it probably likes red arrows.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Well, it certainly looks like a good start on a repectable hat, Jeff   :D  (Even though it is big enough to get itself pulled if you don't "shrink" it some -   :saywhat:

Uh - you have to shrink them before you post them. If you upload them onto Photobucket they get shrunk automatically. Or you can shrink them with programs made for that purpose, before you post them or upload them. One FREE program of that type is Irfanview. Type in their name and dot com and I think it should take you to a site where you can download the program. Then if you can't figure out how to use it, I think I can talk you through it. For now, the pics you have posted now, only you or a moderator can change them - or I'd do it for you. However, You can delete them from the thread, then send (e-mail), me a copy and I'll shrink it for you and send it back to you. then you can repost it (if that will help you).

OK, buddy, glad to help if I can. Just delete the line(s) where the picture info is and leave your post and you can slip them in later. It does take a little longer to e-mail a full size one but just put one per e-mail and it's not too bad.

How long has it been since Barb died in the car crash? I always enjoyed her posts, esp when she and Killie were on a thread together.  Tradgang was so much smaller then and when Barb died, it seemed like everything stopped for a couple days as folks remembered her.

RIP Barb.

Yep - That was one of the worst nights in my life when her boyfriend called to tell me, and asked me to break the news, and yet I was proud that she asked that I do it. I couldn't tell you for sure how long (without a little research) but I'd guess around 7 years now.

Bernie-
Had to go and pull up and old thread. Sept 2004 is when you let us know that Barb had died. I remember trading some arrows with her once and she threw in several broadheads b/c she wanted me to give them a try. Generous and caring lady. I was just reading a few pages of the tribute thread, there were several Tradgangers that posted their regards to Barb that have moved on themselves in one way or another. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust for all...

You are right about the moving on, David. Folks and our loved ones come and go into our lives, leaving bright tracks, if we let them (a few leave muddy tracks, unfortunately). So about 6 years since Barb's passing - so long/fast, and yet it seems like yesterday at times. I think she and Roger would have hit it off too and she'll be pleased at his reaction to her handiwork on the bow cover - she liked her stuff to be used. I've got his bow all ready to mail to him this AM, BTW

Glad you "got-r-done" Jeff - looks good with the neat pins on it, and the pics look good resized. My pleasure too, BTW. We can never have too many worthwhile friends.

Thank you, Terry, that means a lot. It sort of turned into a "run-away" classified ad, didn't it? Sorry, it just sort of happened in my head and heart.
