Thank you for the replies. I got an email alert earlier that a reply had been made but I believe the forum may have been down as I kept receiving an sql error (I deal with this stuff all day as an IT consultant and I know the headaches associated

The only thing I am not sure about is that lower branch (just seems to throw off the look of a large tree although I have seen some pics of strange trees in the wild....who knows). Again, thank you for the sound advice. I'll continue my browsing and reading now
