White background for products

[Mike Bowen]

Not sure what it is called, but what are people using to make the white backgrounds when they shoot pictures of stuff they are selling, or anything else you want with a nice uniform white background? Mainly for small stuff.

A light tent?

I call it paper!! Just messing with you! But really it is just a roll of paper. IM in the middle of rebuilding my product table Ill post a picture when done. But it is basically a 4 foot square of plywood for a surface. White paper as a backdrop and floor. Sheets over PVC pipes as a tent. Does not sound professional. But they dont pay me because the table is pretty. The results really have nothing to do with the look of the table. Just look at the results people have gotten with a cut up box in the DIY thread.
