Any tips to do this?
Should i get a camera or is my webcam mounted on my laptop good enough.

Cheers Unknown mod for change.
I'm guessing that means that it would be prefered to start a second thread.

Get a camera with a macro or "close up" option.

Goto the tutorial section and do a search in the dakka search bar there for taking pictures. Youll learn ALOT doing that.

Man this site is incredibly helpful

Like KC said, power of the interweb. When I first started taking photos, I didn't know anything about taking the close-ups needed. Now, they look halfway decent enough and all with tutorials and such I looked up on this and other sites. Good luck!

I have a camera with macro.
And its still blurry.
I'll look at more guides but it might be the camera.
Shame as i don't have the money (or enough want) for a new one.

what is the Mega Pixel. cause thats usually what its all about. The Higher the Mega Pixel, the better the pic. Although good photographers can take pics just as good with the lower Pixel.

So, I was in this place people call the mall a while back. And I had the urge to expel some bad spirits. As I went into the bathroom, I chose the urinal closes to the corner so I could have some privacy. So I whip out Lord Pevincy and let him loose the bad spirits. Well, I was looking at the wall as the Lord was expelling the spirits and I seemed to have gotten distracted. Turns out, I missed a little.

SO I'm sitting at my computer right, and I have a Coke, Bottled mind you. But it got warm, so I got a Coffie cup and I filled it with the coke and some Ice and I sipped as I did my internet stuff. So like and hour passed and I hadn't sipped any of it. and when I go to sip it, I notice that something solid is in it. So I'm like, "No, why would there be something solid in my coke?" SO I pull these solid THINGS off my tongue and guess what they are? F ING ANTS! I was like WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And so I ran into the Kitchen coughing and what not and I threw those little bastards down the drain with a flood of hate and cold water.......those bastards are lucky I don't have my Nucians yet!!!

I see this is bothering you too somewhat. Do we need a stickied thread with all the most helpful p/m tutorials?

Nope this isnt bothering me much, my sense of humor is pretty odd, and is best enjoyed in person. Somehow it doesnt always seep through onto words but what can ya do

On that note, I think I need a sticky for something just so I dont give people the wrong idea
