anyone's faint line didn't photograph well but was real?

mine is so faint. i see it clearly. it came within 5 minutes or so. but it is awfully faint. when i was trying to resize the photo and the editor gave the whole photo a dark mask, the line was visible, but not without that mask.

I have a terrible camera, but my lines were real. You couldn't see them in pictures, but they were there.

With early BFPs, I see people playing with the pics in photoshop all the time. Of course, forcing a line to show up by manipulating the colors in photoshop doesn't make you any more pregnant, but sometimes those very very light BFPs just don't photograph well.

I'd still love to see your pic - even if it is altered. :

I had a lot of problems with my camera, which I bought pretty much for the express purpose of sharing my :bfp online if I ever got one;



There are several different settings for the flash and I had to keep playing with them before I FINALLY got a pic that wasn't all overexposed and washed out.

By then the test line was darker than the control line and I'd already "passed" two digitals so there din't seem to be a point in posting it, but at least I have my memento.

I tried using my scanner to photograph a very faint :bfp when I had my chemical back in December, but it did an even worse job than my camera.

i took it on the macro setting. my camera is pretty good.

i am terrible at photoshop! i don't think i can alter it! okay, will try to figure out where to post.

I always turn the flash off and I set it on ... um, little flower? Maybe that is the same as "macro", I just don't have the lingo down.

I like to use photobucket for posting pics. It's free and pretty easy.

the line is gone. i looked again, and only a "space holder" kind of thing, no line. it was there and it was pink. this is nervewrecking. still no af. will retest tomorrow.
