So how exactly does this work? How do you... um... for lack of better teminology, "get" it on to a website? :confused:

Seeing as how I just got one for Christmas, I might as well put it to some use. ;)

Before teh question is asked, yes my cam came with software that enabled me to do so, but I'm not looking to pay another $5/month. I already have hosting and a webcam, so you'd think it'd be easy (and free!!!), but nooooooo...

Ehh... I really couldn't find anything with elgooG for some reason.

So all I need is some little program? Both of teh links on that page were dead... maybe elgooG will be kinder this time....

Hmm... I found ConquerCam (http://www.theill.com/conquercam/). Let's see if this works...

I'll list a few things that worked for me...

www.myowncam.org
www.eyeballchat.com (good only in some cases)
https://wwws.inetcam.com/secured/download.html

all of the above stream directly from your computer; no hosting is needed.

Thanks for teh links.

ConquerCam seems to do exactly what I need though. It caputures teh image and FTPs it to my hosting account.
