Looking for Pic

Does anyone have a pic of there Pepper Plants trimmed back for winter? I've read a couple of posts on it but a picture is worth a thousand words.
Thanks,
 
I had two plants that just looked like green sticks in the ground, both are producing lots of pods now. Just don't stop watering them.
 
This is from a post I previously made on another forum:

Here's where I cut back the top and the roots and repot in a smaller container. The trick is to find the right conditions to keep them semi-dormant for the winter or you'll have to cut back again as I had to and you're likely to have aphid problems as I did.



And here's a pic in the spring after a few months of growing.


And here's the monster now(August 2008)

I did this as an experiment to see how far a chile could be pruned and still recover.......it's really hard to kill a chile.

Pruned:
