    Photo bucket is a good way to post your pics. as far as the IMG Ralph Davis has a awesome page on it. It's not only that they get darker but it's like they look dirty. It kinda looks like some one took a black marker and colored random scales all over the snake. Lol I personally havnt seen it in person but check out his site it may help you out.

    Photobucket is super easy. Once you upload the picture you will see links under the picture, copy the IMG Code link and paste it here.

    Negative, this is how she looks now. When I bought her she was 85 percent gray, then after 2 sheds she was completely gray.
