Well, I admire Susie Oviatt's (did I spell it right?  Gosh, I hope so!)
work so much, I tried to emulate it and failed miserably.  Heck, I didn't
even come close.  I'm trying to draw an old, gnarled tree.  It needs to be
one screen or less.  Here's what I have so far - can anyone help my pitiful
excuse for a tree? :)  The size is just about right.

Thanks,

That's a tree, you say?!  I got a kink in my neck trying to see it.  *smile*
