Default First trail cam.....Testing it out. Help??

Put out my first trail cam...got a few pictures of some small bucks.
Still learning how to set these things up to get the best pictures....
Also having problems uplaoding pictures???
Plus I though I would tell you guys who are on the trail cam forum about a sweet web page that is running a trail cam photo contest for the month....its www.outdoorcontests.com-----I just thought you guys might enjoy it..it says its free and they are giving prizes out...

Any help with the up load problem??

If you are not hooked by now mouse12 you will be soon on trail camera's.I have 3 out now and will check again on sat being out for a week.a few things to consider try if possible to set your camera up facing north or south and still have a good area to cover.the reason being the rising and setting sun may trigger your camera and you will think the trigger speed was too slow and get pics of nothing.I learned the hard way.also after you set it up look not only close to your camera but in the viewing range and make sure there is nothing like weeds or small branches waving around because it can also trigger your camera if there is enough wind.I don't know what type of camera you have but I have a card reader I paid $15.00 for at best buy and download them on my computer and put them in my pics for further viewing.good luck on your viewing and hunting this season.
