Setup your own webcam

I have received some requests on how to setup a webcam, so here it is

first you need a webcam and a capture driver installed on your system for that webcam (ususally comes on a cd when you buy the webcam, otherwise search on the homepage of the manufacturer)

next you need a programme for uploading a jpeg image to your server, popular programs are
Conquercam and
Webcam32
otherwise search for a programme in a p2p client

I use conquercam and the rest is based on this programme but the basics can be used in any programme

enter the setup menu of your webcam application
Conquercam
1) is where you put the name of your ftp server
eg. ftp.yourdomain.com

2) is where you put the username and password to the ftp server - ask your host or domain provider

3) is the directory on the ftp server where you want to store the webcam image
eg. /yourdomain.com/cam/

4) is what you want the image to be called - it doesn’t matter as long as the ending is .jpg

to display your webcam on the page use WebCam.js found on this site.

Or just put in the picture http://yourdomain.com/cam/webcamimage.jpg where you want the webcam to be displayed.
If you use the last method you might want to put a refresh tag in the head section of your page, it looks like this:

<META HTTP-EQUIV=”refresh” CONTENT=”15″>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=”pragma” CONTENT=”no-cache”>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=”expires” CONTENT=”0″>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=”Cache-Control” CONTENT=”no-cache”>

if you don’t use theses tags the webcam page will not update automaticly

How dumb are you???

I think you’ll like this!!

Please try the “Just how dumb are you?” test….

Here is a very simple little test comprising of four questions to
determine the level of your intellect. Your replies must be
spontaneous and immediate, with no deliberating or wasting time. And no
cheating.

Marks, set….GO!!!

1: You are competing in a race, and overtake the runner lying in second
place. In which position are you now?

Scroll down…..

Answer:

If you answered that you’re now coming first then you’re completely wrong.

You overtook the second runner and took their place, therefore you’re
coming second.
For the next question try not to be so dim.

2 : If you overtake the last runner, what position are you now in?

scroll down…..

Answer:

If you answered second-last, once again you’re completely wrong. Think
about it…How can you over take the person coming
last? If you’re behind them then they can’t be last. The answer is
impossible!!

It would appear that thinking is not one of your strong points. You
would make a good weak link!!!

Anyway, here’s another to
try, don’t take any notes or use a calculator, and remember your replies

must be instantaneous. Take heart!! (that was the
dictionary’s suggestion)

3: Take 1000. Add 40. Add another 1000. Add 30. 1000 again. Plus 20.
Plus 1000. And plus 10.

What is the total ?

scroll down….

Answer:

5000??? Wrong again!!!! The correct answer is 4100. Try again with a
good calculator. Today is clearly not your day!!
Although you should manage to get the last question right…

4 : Marie’s father has five daughters: 1. Chacha 2. Cheche 3. Chichi 4.
Chocho 5. ????

Question: What is the fifth daughter’s name?

Think quickly…you’ll find the answer below…

scroll down……

Answer:

Chuchu??? WRONG!!!!!

It’s obviously Marie!!! Read the question properly!!!!!
You are clearly the weakest link.

All he needs

A married couple is driving down the interstate doing 55 mph.
The husband is behind the wheel. His wife looks over at him
and says, ‘Honey, I know we’ve been married for 15 years, but,
I want a divorce.’

The husband says nothing but slowly increases speed to 60 mph.

She then says, ‘I don’t want you to try to talk me out of it,
because I’ve been having an affair with your best friend, and
he’s a better lover than you.’

Again the husband stays quiet and just speeds up as he clenches
his hands on the wheels.

She says, ‘I want the house.’ Again the husband speeds up, and
now is doing 70 mph.

She says, ‘I want the kids too.’ The husband just keeps driving
faster, and faster, until he’s up to 80 mph.

She says, ‘I want the car, the checking account, and all the
credit cards too.’ The husband slowly starts to veer toward a
bridge overpass piling, as she says, ‘Is there anything you want?’

The husband says, ‘No, I’ve got everything I need right here.’

She asks, ‘What’s that?’

The husband replies just before they hit the wall at 90 mph,
‘I’ve got the airbag!’”

He said she said

10) He said… I don’t know why you wear a bra; you’ve got nothing to put in it.
She said…You wear briefs, don’t you?
9) She said…What do you mean by coming home half drunk?
He said… It’s not my fault…I ran out of money.
8) He said… Since I first laid eyes on you, I’ve wanted to make love to you in the worst way.
She said…Well, you succeeded.
7) He said… ‘Two inches more, and I would be king’
She said…’Two inches less, and you’d be queen’
6) On wall in ladies room: ‘My husband follows me everywhere..’
Written just below it: ‘I do not.’
5) He said… ‘Shall we try a different position tonight?’
She said…’That’s a good idea…. you stand by the ironing board while I sit on the sofa and fart. ‘
4) Priest… ‘I don’t think you will ever find another man like your late husband.’
She said…’Who’s gonna look?’
3) He said… What have you been doing with all the grocery money I gave you?
She said…Turn sideways and look in the mirror.
2) He said… Let’s go out and have some fun tonight.
She said…Okay, but if you get home before I do, leave the hallway light on.
1) He said… Why don’t you tell me when you have an orgasm?
She said…I would, but you’re never there.

Truth : Funplex

Listen to this ….
This makes you think !!!

If we could shrink the earth’s population to a village
of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human
ratios remaining the same, it would look something
like the following :
There would be:

57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be non-white
30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian
6 people would possess 59% of the entire world’s
wealth and all 6 would be from the United States.
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth
1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education
1 would own a computer
