You can find one photo on the Flying Models Magazine web site. Go to Plans directory. It is there under Control Line Stunt.  8)

Has to be the computor operator. LL~ LL~  I know you owe me one Randy.  Allen is one terrific gentelman and builds beautiful models.  After reading his story in Control Line World, I wonder where he finds the time to do all he does.  Thansk Allen for all you do. H^^

Resize to 640 pixels width and compress to around 100kb. Be sure they're .jpg files, and you'll be good to go.
Allen's are apparently straight out of the computer, and if you open one, you'll see a problem with that.  H^^ Steve

Randy....Opinions will vary, but IrfanView is Freeware and works wonderfully. It'll do way more stuff than we need to do. It's a quick download from TwoCows (Google for it). I used something else on Gordan Delaney's computer, and thought it was way too complex. All we really need to do is name, crop, resize and compress/save. A little "stick time" is all it takes.  y1   Steve

I use the program that came with the system.   

1. Right click on Windows icon.
2. Right click on pictures in the menu.
3. Find picture in the files and right click on it.
4. Left click on picture which brings up another menu.
5. Right click on edit in the menu.
6. Another menu will come up with icons, right click on resize.
7. Tell/fill in percentage you want to shrink the picture.  Most of mine are 50%.
    Check MB size before editing.
8. Then I right click on exit icon upper right hand corner of the page.
9. Go back to pictures page/file and check size again in recent change area.
10.  If correct size go back to Stunt Hanger post and right click on Additional Options icon.
11.  Pictures file should come up in another box.  Lower right corner is boxes.  Right click on
     the one for picture type, ie.  jpeg, and others.
12.  Find picture you just edited and right click on it.
13.  Lower right corner click on he send box.

I know it takes time to learn all this and just when I think I have it all figured out someone changes the program.  Then I raise H^## until I figure out the new procedure which is just basically the same. H^^
