Addendum:
Of course one of the points Bill makes with his rather sarcastic reply
is that doing it right in the camera saves a lot of time in Photoshop.
Another point, is that while my attempts needed some PS'ing, I did know
why they needed PS'ing. Folks who only know how to use their camera on
"auto" often have no clue as to why they have to do all that PS'ing of
their images. After about two more tries I think that all I will need to
do to an eBay image in photoshop is reduce the size and save for web. In
other words fine tuning. Also, I knew what I needed to do it right,
before I started. I just did not have the money for it.

The knife looks fine.
I take my ebay shots out of doors on a table on the back patio by natural
light. Of course, overcast days create a bit of a problem (got some stuff to sell
now and take pictures of now when it tends to be overcast). A light tent
would be nice, but not totally necessary. I have thought of constructing my own
like the one here.

Because I don't sell enough on ebay often enough to really want to buy one.
Good pictures DO make a difference in selling, though.
