NICE!! I'm glad it was worth the wait. Sometimes it good to have to wait for something you want so bad. It makes you really appreciate it. :wink:

You dont have a digital camera? If you have a regular camera usually where you develop the film have an option to give you the pictures on a cd.

Otherwise, digital cameras are cheap nowadays....
