Throw it away!

Yeah whatever!

Great for Ebay, Flicker or Facebook but not anything near what you need for stock Sorry!

And I dont think to many people will disagree.

I'm going to disagree.  I used a light cube to shoot a lot of still life objects, many of which continue to sell.  Think of your light tent as a soft box around your subject instead of your lights.  Position your lights outside the tent.  I used daylight balanced fluorescents when I started (camera on a tripod for the long exposure required by "hot" lights", but later switched to speedlights.  Continuous lights are easier, since you can see where shadows fall and move things around, but I got better results with strobes.

Congratulations Dan.

congrats! i think its a great starting point. i had one when i first started, but soon wanted to shoot things that were too big to fit in it. we use a similar thing here at work, not a light tent but a box with the lights in it. it works ok for small parts but now that i know how to shoot without it, i would much prefer to do it that way. unfortunately no space for a studio and no budget for the lights. 

Congrats to the win! But unfortunately ruxpriencdiam is correct IMO. A light tents is no good! In fact its not good at all despite what you've seen on youtube. You'll have no control of the ligt and the images will look flat and unappealing.

You CAN control the light in a light tent somewhat by moving the lights (both position and distance). You can also use black cards to add some contrast/shadows.

Dan, has your light tent arrived yet?  If so, have you played with it, and what do you think so far?

cypher  -  i  recieved  it  and  have  been  toying  around  with  it.  I  just  can't  get  the  lights  placed  just  right.
     I  need  books  or  magazine  articles  to  help  me  or  printable  article  off  the  net.

Yeah, they really suck. I'll PM my mailing address and you can send it to me. 

Have fun, you're bound to find some good uses for it eventually.
