Dig Cam help!

So, my husband tried to take some pics the other day w/ our new digital. (We had an older one)

Here's the problem: After you take the picture, there are these white horizontal lines on the LCD when you try to view the picture?? The LCD is not cracked whatsoever, and the lens on the front of the cam seems to be fine also.

I think I may have dropped it on my foot not too long ago, but nothing severe. Could this be the cause? And, is there anything we can do to fix it?

you might have to get it looked at...it sounds like a screen problem. On some cameras, an over-exposed area will flash whiie, but that doesn't sound like what's happening here. DL the pics and take a look to see if it's a problem with your sensor or your screen. If it's a sensor problem and it's not under warranty you might be better of evaluating the costs of fixing it vs getting a new camera. If it's a screen problem, you may not even need to get it fixed if you can live with it.

yeah if its just on the camera screen then its the screen. I am assuming you have downloaded pics to your PC and they are normal?

Well, and it only shows up after the picture is taken. Yes- previous pics came out ok

No, I don't think so. There aren't horizontal and veritcal lines in the screen.
