Im looking for some free software that will allow me to use my webcam to take pictures and save them.
I got a CD with my webcam with some software to do this on, but i lost it :)

I know this isnt techincally programming, but i figured the people here might know best, and there isnt really a specific place for this kind of question (except general maybe) so...

Thanks to anyone who helps.

I don't know, you need a screen shot software for it. I would just hit print screen half a million times, crop the image and save. Easy! That's how I've done it before (though not really sophisticated though lol).

WinXP has webcam control software built in. Just go to My Computer and then go to your webcam...

Just as an FYI, whenever I have software-related questions, I ask in general, and I have ALWAYS gotten at least one good answer quickly. While you're logic was correct in posting it here, it makes more sense to post it there since, while there's less a chance that there'll be people that know about how to create software, program, etc., there's a high chance that there will be people who USE software and know a lot about what software is good and stuff.

So you should usually post these kinds of questions in general.. even though I got answers here already.
