I'm using an external flash...I usually always have it pointing up so the light bounces off the ceiling...sounds like you need to reduce your exposure...fiddle with the flash options...see what happens

What kind of camera did you get? Is it one of those 35mm digital cameras that have removable lenses?

My camera is a 5mega pixle cannon the size of a deck of cards. I will check the options today after work, but I think it has limited settings because the darn thing seems to only work on automatic. I wish I could manually focus rather than have it do it for me.

Thanks for the tip.

I got the Nikon D40X...it's a DSLR...yes, it's the kind with removable lenses. Actually, it didn't come with any lenses...you gotta buy those separately...have fun!!! Practice lots...you can take a ton of pics with digital...it's not film...you can just trash the ones you don't want!!!
