webcam app

my laptop has a webcam, but doesn't seem to have an actual application for taking pictures etc..

is their a good app i can get for this?

wat web cam do u have? i dont think they give anything along with the web cam. but u can try scrhing for it in Google.

A built in 'HP webcam'. Is there a generic application that can make full use of its functions (ie take pictures, record video)? Right now I can use it through msn and skype, but those just feed video to other people.

i can try looking for it.

My WinXP has "Scanner and Camera Wizard". I used to use that to take pictures with my webcam before I used a better program.

Can't you also record a high quality video of yourself and take a good still frame from it?

yeah but i don't really have a program to record video with it..

camtasia?
quicktime pro?

microsoft vidcap?

those might do it.
