I would argue that very very few don't have mobile phones and unless it is from the dark ages then they al have cameras. I've taken shots using the camera on my phone and not had any complaints about the quality of the images. Please don't read this as an invite to go through my catalogue to criticize my pics! And definitely not an invitation to criticize my taste in music either! heh heh Virtually all the images I've posted over the past two years or so have been taken using the camera in my Mobile Phone. I've not found it any more time consuming than using my scanner (which decided to cease communicating when I got a new Laptop some time back) but I do have a connecting lead that joins Phone and Laptop together which makes it simple for me to transfer photos for editing and posting. Every now and then I find I have an image which is (in my view) of insufficient quality but in that instance I just retake the photo. There is a difficulty in getting the balance between sufficient daylight and minimum glare correct, but I've built that into my daily routine and I take batches of photos every two or three days if the light looks right. There are some images here (some of them done by me no doubt) that could be better, but I always think that an image of indifferent quality is better than nothing at all. Now one thing that I really can't understand is when people add an image without updating songwriter/producer credits .. but that is a separate issue!!
