Im looking for a few ideas on things to make a bounce flash for the onboard flash on a D60/10D or rebel.
I have tried tissue paper, printer paper and a few other items, but I would like something a little stronger and it should be small.
any ideas?

pringles top ? Though the on-board flash is so small and relatively weak that I'm not sure how much light/range you are going to have left after diffusing it...

I'm experimenting with the cap from an Albuterol Inhaler and a paperclip to hold it over the flash. It's just the right size horizontally, but a little bit too big vertically so it bounces a little light back at you. This isn't too much of an issue if you are looking through the viewfinder, but is a little bright if you are focused and looking over the camera when you actually shoot.
I'll break out the Oly later and take a picture of it set up and also post some examples. I don't have many, having just started experimenting with this yesterday...
