Well I am a total noob at this slow shutter stuff and CoolBug was helping me in our other thread but I was still getting it wrong. This camera is rather new so I could not find any info online on how to to what you and CoolBug are doing like telling me what buttons or setting to use. I tried a few last night and there were numbers on the camera screen and I could see them change and I was either getting an ok shot or a really crappy one but nothing like what you guys have.
 
Wayne, what make & model camera?

dtba, maybe post your shutter speed and aperture settings here for wayne.
 
Wayne,

See pages 40-43 of your manual for shutter & aperture settings. Use the values in some the links above and set them in your camera, you will have to play around a bit with the values.

Page:
41- How to set aperture
42- How to set shutter speed
43- How to adjust both at once

Thanks ponder gonna look now at your links.

I took this picture last night, I was hoping I would get the red light moving across the screen, if you know what I am trying to say.

From your photo it looks like that LED is flashing, so it may be tricky to get it to form a solid line. (you can try looking at it from the corner of your eye, or while moving your head, to check if it is flickering.)

To slow down your shutter speed, turn off the camera's flash, and dim the lights. you will have to rest the camera on something, preferably a tripod.

You may be right, I think it is flashing as the arm swings back and forth. I think I have a tripod here somewhere because when I tried to hold it still in my hand the pictures were really bad.

Thanks man.

If possible you should shoot full res and then resize as necessary later.
