Oh, and I finally got a shot on there of the Tangent bass and its "twin" Tanget guitar.

I'd like t'find a print of that . . . Reader's Digest a few months ago. There's usually a similarly drawn, humorous picture on the back cover. Don't know the artist, but it is definitely a cross between Norman Rockwell and Mort Drucker. |

What if I only have the image on my computer? I tried linking to the page on OFC's Gallery where I uploaded the pic but the URL just said www.ovationfanclub.com.... Do I need to put the image online somewhere else first?
By the way, I'm going to do some more work on the picture when I have some free time (instead of a 2 minute break from work)... My girlfriend's a graphic designer and I"ll have her give me a hand. Maybe we can put together a real nice OFC version of the picture. :p
Cheers,

Go to your OFC Gallery, right click on the picture there, pick "Properties", copy the URL from that listing .... |

(OK, I'm doing this like I was told... but if the image doesn't come up, please look in my gallery and someone else please post it because apparently I'm an idiot).

Location: New York, NY | Thanks a lot Mark. Frankly, I'm questioning my sanity a little at the moment... but after 3 years of law school and 2 months of studying I think I should just take it and get it out of the way. :)
After all, if things don't work out I could always fall back on a career as a graphic designer (all be it after a little more practice). If I get called out on altering the picture I have a background in copyright law to back myself up with! |

Doctor.

Location: Boise, Idaho | That is funny! Oh, and I didn't take a BarBri course either. The Iowa bar had it's own review course and when I moved out here the course was over, so I just winged it on my own. After the Iowa bar exam, most others would probably be a piece of cake. The judge I know that failed the New Jersey bar passed the New York and Pennsylvania bar exams first. I think he didn't bribe the right people. |
