Welcome!  And thanks for posting.

Here's a link to a thread on posting pics.

I personally use imagelinky.com to post mine but you do have to get the sized down.  I use Paint to do that and keep re-sizing them down.  Many guys (perhaps most) use photobucket.

From this link you'll find links to tutorials for both photo bucket and imagelinky.

How big a rack did it have?  Can't tell from here. I killed a cactus this afternoon.

I'm pretty sure they have shed their racks by this time of year so .... Was it a buck or a doe?!
That's why they call it hunting....

That is great but try using the word harvested rather than killed. That is the worst word that you can use especially around people that do not hunt or maybe who are thinking of trying the sport. I hope that you take this as a consecutive criticism.  I feel that the word kill has no place in our sport.
