Ok, I have watched the videos, there pretty short. I finally tried a picture on a piece of hickory. You can barely make out the out line of the picture once it is done. What am I doing wrong?

You can try applying a dark stain to bring out the image.

if you post a picture of the work then you will find you get much better response to questions of this sort, it's easier for people to help if they can actually see the results. Other thing is that you haven't really given enough detail for people to go on, more detail you can give then the better the response again.
Problem is that there are so many different variables to take into account from the actual picture itself to the cutter you use & the settings.
Can't help personally but sure someone will be able to.
