Default DIY (vx wheels) painted!!!! (pics inside w/canon 20D)

well i work with high end camera's all day so i took the canon 20D outside and took some pics of my car. just bought the wheels of a guy the day before and they were in rough shape but a little sanding and paint and this is what came out.






redone through photo bucket.
but i think it's just me i just point and shot with auto no time to change any settings
what you guys think?
and don't worry bodywork is coming soon i can't take seeing the rust on this car! always seeing such flawless work on most of honda-tech.
all comments welcome

it's we-todd that's ruining the quality.

vx's are too small, and use a different host like photobucket.

if you are looking for advice, that is your mistake right there. if you are shooting all your pictures using auto settings, you won't get good shots every time. learn your camera trying out the settings and modes so you can use them to your full potential. you have a very capable camera, but it will only be as good as the skill of the person using it.</TD></TR></TABLE>
just about every digital camera on the market with the exception of minolta and nikon we don't carry those brands
and you are right about auto i know that it won't be perfect pic but they should look better than that. i dunna something about these just didn't seem right. and i didn't have to much time i was still working when i took these pics i just ran outside with a 2000 dollar camera (canadian funds) and shot but i'll mess around some more when i have time to do it hopefully i can get a better pic.<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by eg6junkie &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
