Default Acropora ID Please

I've looked, but I can't seem to find any pictures that can identify this. Very fuzzy. Anyone have any idea what this species is?

Not the greatest picture I know, my camera is ancient.

I have no idea on the name, but I have one that looks nearly exactly like it.

From this picture, I can guess that its Acropora Tenuis.

It's impossible to see in the picture (I have to get a better camera). The polyps are extended all the time and they come out of an almost smooth skin, almost no raised corelites at all. The base is smooth and cream colored.
