9 pointed star

hello all
first off, sorry if this is not an appropriate place where to post this.

i need to quickly find 9 pointed star designs. unfortunately, nothing i have
found is suitable for what i want, so i'm wondering if you have any ideas on how to generate or obtain them.

the design i'm trying to find is similar to the one that can be found here: http://www.infonet.st-johns.nf.ca/providers/bahai/star.jpg

however, the "tips" or "ends" of the star should be narrower, originating from a location closer to the centre than that one.

thanks very much

It is built into Photoshop. Go to the master pallet (floating thing on left) and right-click the SHAPES button, choose POLYGON. Then at the top of the screen, type in the number of sides (9). To get shorter star-tips, right-click on the little arrow beside the icon (at the top) and in the drop-down menu type is something like 30% next to "indent sides".

Then click and drag. You can rotate it as you click/drag, too.

You can also "translate" as you click/drag - just hold down the spacebar.
