Photo Studio Tent

Tips on using a photo light box please..?
I bought a photo light box on Ebay and it doesn't have any intstructions with it. Call me stupid, I guess it must be common sense or something. It's a fold up photo box that came with 2 light stands.

For some reason I'm still getting shadows in my pictures. If I use my flash on my camera it's way to bright and you cannot see the image. What tips will hlep me take better photo's with this box?
Thanks! 
Thanks for the link! I'll look into new lights!
Well, after looking at the link, I would not have paid more than $15 (shipping included).
First thing I would do is throw the "2 high-intensity lights" in the trash. Even looking at their photo, you can't see the lights having any effect. I would replace them with something like http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xj1/R-202066791/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053 You would have to adjust their distance to the tent, but it will provide more light than the ones they sent you.
Good luck
