Hello everyone! Not a very talkative group are we? What does everyone do for their photos? I took all of my own, but I don't think my camera is up to the challenge!

I just bought a new camera. Nothing too fancy but I was using my cell phone camera ha ha!

We have been using a super old camera. I think its about time for an upgrade.

Let me know if you like my pictures and think they are good and I will give you my tricks to take them.

Hi, I just joined about 2 seconds ago...I don't know if my pics are any good, but i feel like I've improved. I think I take about 40 per item. Anyway, I received 2 (from 2 different people) photo studios in a box for christmas. Haven't tried it out yet, but real soon.

I use my Iphone to take and edit all of my pictures. I think it does a great job!

I use my Lumix, it seems to work well and I take all of my own photos and edit them into a collage for the main photo with several views of the item and then a few single pictures posted in case the collage is too confusing, but I'm just starting out so this may not be a good idea :)

Wow- SteamTime I can't believe your Iphone takes pictures that are that good! I don't know what's wrong with my camera. 99% of the photos I take are blurry. It's so annoying!

lylahgrace-Your photo collages are absolutely beautiful! How'd you do that? You may be right that they are a little confusing to use as the thumbnail pics though. Those are the first photos people look at. If you look at your views the one that has received the most is the necklace that has the fewest photos in the collage. It is a great-and I'm sure very time consuming-idea though! Are you a graphic artist?

Thanks LilE, I actually changed the front page pictures now to individual shots because it was too confusing, the collages are now the third or fourth picture.

I do the collages using Picasa. If you have a gmail account you can upload your pictures to Picasaweb and they have a program you can download for free to edit pictures or make collages or whatever.

And no I'm not a graphic artist, I wish!
