What the crap... even as a jpg, the pics are like 500k... how would I crop the pic or at least make the file a smaller size, using either Paint or Microsoft Photo Editor??

I like that number... 8.7 million, ranking paintball as the 3rd most popular "extreme" sport. Now if we can only lose the "extreme" moniker...

What's really cool about this article is it was written by someone who's brother plays for Bad Company, he paints a very positive picture and not the usual "paintball is for nazis and warmongers" rhetoric.
