I have a large quantity of picture to take, most of them are smallware like glasses, flatware, china, stainless table accesories and serving trays and otehr small stuff. The pictures are mostly for low resolution web use for my company's website. But I want something that looks good none the less.

Would something like this be good for that type of usage:
Shooting Tent

If not, can you tell me what would be good for what I want to do.
Thanks all for your advice.

The shooting tent seems reasonable. Although more expensive, and depending on the size of the objects, you may also want to consider a CloudDome as a possibility; their samples seem pretty impressive.

I purchased one on ebay from a seller who sells many of these light tents...it arrived and looked just like the photo...it was easy to put together, and it works wonderfully...you can use just about any light source to illuminate it..and you can get it for the $34.00 price. Here is the link to the seller on ebay....he always has them listed, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an inexpensive light tent of good quality:

You might want to search the forums. Somebody posted a message a month ago with a link to a website on how to make your own. Here are two photos I took inside the homemade light tent. I was really happy with the results, for something I made myself.

Here are the instructions again for making your own light box....I remembered I had saved them for possible future use. After I saw the light tent on ebay I decided I liked the idea of it being ready to assemble, and the convience of being able to take it apart when I needed to. //www.pbase.com/wlhuber/light_box

I'll have to look into building one, but I'm still thinking of buying this kit, at least i'll have something a little bit more professional. But the DIY one is still great.
