No longer a newbie, moving up!
I bought an SB-600 a day ago and have just been familiarising myself with it.
I made a sort of soft-box contraption and converted an old microphone stand to accommodate the flash unit. I put the soft-box as the backdrop and the flash behind that. I had to use the on-camera flash but used a piece of card to direct the light to the right then bounced it off a white reflector.
C&C required obviously but i think i got semi ok results but i'm just wondering if there's anything obvious sticking out that i should watch out for.
sorry about the subject with the lazy eye, horrible hair and stuble..
(i'm thinking a fraction more light on my face but i couldn't get more due to the limitation of my on-camera flash, if i opened the aperture i would probably have missed focus...)
And a quick try with the Black&White option in PS3:
