Oh, and you cannot fit one inside a basement, either. Too large, especially in height.
Yes, well, obviously, Storm has never seen one, since he can't believe that anyone might actually come to own such a thing, not that it's a terribly monumental task for anyone with some money, given that you can BUY SUCH THINGS OFF OF THE INTERNET even now. He also has yet to address the fundamental problem of how the hell I'm supposed to focus the camera while it's lying on the ground, or get anything other than an extended shot of the floor from that position, or even how the hell I'm supposed to get this picture to him, not to mention why he should be worthy of this effort at all, given that I don't really care what a little child like him thinks.
ROLF. Norf, unfortunately for you, I happen to be a military history buff, with particular interesst for WW2 weapons. And what more, my grand-father got a top State Award of the Soviet Union (Stalin's Premium) for designing very different oil filtering system for T34 during WW2. So please, don't tell me about T34 unless you want to show yourself even more stupid that you already did, and make me laugh harder that I am laughing as already.

As for the rest of your photography troubles, as well as how can you make picture public, give me a break. 6 year old kid can handle such "challenging" tasks just fine.
