Web cam! Woohooo! Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I got a free cheapie web cam from a friend who was moving on to something better! So you know what comes next!

The quality is fairly poor...not sure how to fix that. But on the plus side, it hides any blemishes. Not that I have any, noooo...

First one is baaad...me looking entirely too serious...

I don't know why the image is so grainy. I tried to play with the settings and nothing helped. It's Logitech, so you'd think it would be okay...

Webcams are almost always grainy, and they almost always have huge problems with lighting.

I was going to say you're using a fast film, so you get grainier pictures, but then I remembered I'm one of the few people left who still prefers not to use a digital camera.

My webcam isn't that bad for gaininess, just bad for lighting.

I look so Canadian on my right side there.

"I'll just take off my shirt"

Is that your solution to just everything?

You look a lot younger on those pics than you do on the ones you posted earlier. On those you looked like gay, on these you look like red_jon. and yes, there actually is a difference
