Issues with Holga?

Ok, so some of you are expecting greatness with the Holga from the get-go. Not going to happen! Here is an entry from the NYTimes photo blog you should see:

Note the black halo around the image? Note the dreaminess? It will happen to you too. You just need patience. If you go to my flickr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/melvasa/ - the Washington, DC album is all Diana shots. With long-expired Kodak Ektacolor 120 mm film! In the London august 2009 album, there are two Diana images with the same film. See if you can find them. Note: I scanned and edited them.

I have failed miserably with some rolls in the beginning too...
