Shoot, for some reason the HTML tags didn't take. Lemme try again.... [IMG] [IMG]
I think these pics are a little clearer than the ones I originally posted. I took them with my camera pressed flat against the top of my ping pong...

Yeah, I really stink at taking pictures:( I suspect my tremoring hands are the problem. I really need to get a tripod or try shooting with the...
