Quick and noob question reagarding pal application

It will likely work as long as it meets all their requirements. I would suggest getting it printed on photo paper though, they likely won't take it just run off your home inkjet on copy paper. Make sure it is well lighted and meets all the requirements shown on the application and you should be fine. The worst they can do is send it back and ask for a better photo.
I wouldn't use it unless your cell camera is a pretty decent quality though. Better than 2MP would be my suggestion so the resolution is decent.

But for $8-15 you can get a photo done at any Wallmart. Why risk the additional delay?

I did it all by myself with a camera and a tripod. No worries, I printed it on normal 8 1/2 by 11 paper, no glossy fancy stuff.....
And here I am, with a shiny PAL/RPAL card, with my name and picture on it.
Just do it yourself, up against a white or gray wall. Make sure you crop the picture to proper dimensions and you should be fine. Save yourself the time and money, don't bother with professionals doing it.

My son and I took our own pics with digital camera against a white background, no shadows, computer and photo paper. Made sure the head was at least 30mm high, shoulders showing, some border work with computer (did not change appearance of face) and print out. Cut out one pic and sent it in, all ok, licence recd. Our Walmart charges $20 + for 2 passport pics. I purchased a package of 50 sheets of photo paper for $12 at Walmart, can make ######### licence pictures in the future.

At the course I took they took everyone picture with a digital camera and printed themout while we watch one of the saftey movies. It worked fine for me. Photo paper is a must though. And like someone already said I'm not sure if I would use a cell phone camera. Unless its the new Iphone maybe, the cameras seem to be the only decent thing on em since using it as a phone its useless.
