My first try with HDR photography (Thanks to GrynnWulfe's tuition^^)...this is not exactly what came out of it because FA does not take .hdr files and I had to take a screencap of it and save it as .jpg. Still, the difference between this and a 'normal' pic should be rather clear^^

Ooh, very cool. Another one drug into the fun of HDR. *grins* You should consider doing some form of tone mapping to the HDR image after you combine then. Tone mapping is the process of taking a high dynamic range image, and mapping it so it can be viewed properly on a compressed file format or non HDR screen. If you used photomatix, its a built in option. :)
I tried to tone map it, but in the tone map window, it only gives me one of the three starting images and not the HDR file I had obtained...plus, what should I do after the tone map window is open? Is there a single mapping option or...? Sorry to bother, but I've had some trouble with the program^^
You're not a bother. :)
1. Open photomatix.
2. HDRI pulldown -> Generate HDR.
3. Browse and select images to generate HDR image with -> Ok.
4. I usually choose default values at next window.
5. HDRI pulldown -> Tone mapping.
That should do it for you. If not, gimme a shout at bigdumbwolf@gmail.com!
