Can't post pics from my phone? Images are too big? Need to be less than 150kb ?

Before I delete - can anyone help me post pics or post them for me? Thanks!

You can download any number of free apps that will downsize a photo from google play if you have an android.

Thanks rougarou. Going to try this again......

The green frog was my very first lure and right away first trip out it caught two small fish so I made the orange frog next and it turned out even better than the first one. These first two have basically the same lip design to them. I then went and made the brown one in the second picture, it turned out even better as far as fit and finish, also decided on a new lip design incorporated into this one (12") and will carry over the same lip design into the smaller ones (10").

The 10" ones I'm calling 354's and the 12" ones I'm calling 473's.

Here is the two prototype 10" (354) and 12" (473) that I finished today with the updated lip design. Really hoping these two run right (third time changing the lip design) and then I can get someone to make me the lips from aluminum.

Those are awesome looking. Very unique high contrast in them. Especially like the bloody anus on the orange one in pic 1. Nothing says vulnerability to a musky like a bloody anus.
