Default I ruined it...

Washed, clayed, buffed, polished, waxed. 10 hours worth. Then decided to try my hand at taking decent pictures with my new Canon.

Images uploaded on Flickr and the BBC code won't work, See attatchments.

Take some new shots during the day time. When I link my Flickr images, I typically choose the 800 pixel size so it isn't too big, then right click and copy the image location. Then when you are typing your post, I click on the little icon that has the mountain to 'insert image', and paste the link.
