Ha, I see what you mean. NO! it's the top of the large , front hatch. And
the tubes are the vent guards.

Good pics, what kind of camera did you get, looking to replace mine.

HP Photosmart 635. It's not a ''high end'' camera. But it has 2.1 MP, and
3x optical, 4x digital zoom. Not bad for $113. I wanted to try a digital
before spending $400 for a 'good' unit. It seems this is good enough for my
purposes. BTW, Mooron recommended it.

Do the links I posted work OK? Webshot seems too slow to me.

Works fine for me ... and the pictures are good..... much better than
anything Bobsprit has presented.

The docking station for that will allow immediate hands free load up to a
web page, download and store the shots to file, mark shots for email/send
them and will recharge the batteries. You can also review the shots on
television.

I really liked the HP635. The video clip feature is a nice touch as well.

Glad it worked out for you Scott. 4 of my friends each bought one as well
after seeing the one I got for my parents.

Links worked fine, I think webshots may seem slow because the image files
are quite large. For comparison purposes, I downloaded one of your images
and it was 66k, my digital images average from 150 to 500k, some of the
scanned images are over 1mb. If you're trying to access just an album(large
thumbnails) it might take a bit of time to download, a single image might
not be too bad. I generally don't notice unless the webshots server happens
to be busy, I have run into that on at least several occasions.

The original pic, saved on a zip drive, was 1,107K. I shrunk them for
quicker DL on the web.
