Go to am image hosting site like photobucket or image shack. Upload and then use the imbedded code. I post pics all the time but for some reason This sights cuts half the photo off. Good luck!

Whaaaa?
Go to the bottom of THIS box when you are typing and see the "upload attachment" tab. Click on it and it will offer you to search your own computer for pics. Find what you want, then hit browse", find what you want and then hit "add the file" and you are in....

haha! i put it under the duck decoy forum. sorry!! first time ever trying to carve block out. figuring on some goldeneyes. give me some opinions on how to make it better if you guys dont mind!? i still have five more blocks to shape out.

Ahhhhh....
I think you may turn on the beavers in the pond with that little number..

Seriously,
1) IF it is going to be a GE, the tail board (which you don't need for Eyes) should be flatter, smaller and lower on the body, just above the water line.

2) You can buy heads on eBay, if you get a few to start you, they will help you determine the entire scale of the bird and look much better until you get better at carving the head, the hardest part..

3) Don't rush... walk away from it for a few days and then have another look. Maybe get ONE good decoy that you are trying to emulate and it'll guide you. Get back to me when it's time to carve blacks and brant.

Thats all good info. i realized after i glued the tail board in that i didnt really need it. i was looking at alot of other guys GE and they didnt have them . but its a start! the way i see it... it was a first attempt and it can only get better down the road, hopefully haha. thanks for info
