This is really old, but if you've never tried it, you can use a Sony Playstaion2 Eyetoy as a webcam!

The image quality of an Eyetoy is way better than the one of a regular webcam:

Here's a link to download the Eyetoy driver:

Cool stuff I found out: Men are four times more likely to be struck by lightning than women.  Wow, really? [dirty joke] Maybe this has to do with the fact that us men have "lightning rods"? [/dirty joke]

Ah ha! Yep, I use my eyetoy as a webcam too! My avatar is from a snapshot with the cam.

I also used my eyetoy in another way, a few years back I hooked up my hifi to the VCR with my eyetoy as video feed only and made a few music videos! (This was before I had a PC before you start saying it was a waste of time to do it this way) And one video made it on to the DVD of PSM2 magazine. Happy memories!

Yeah I sometimes use my eyetoy for webcam MSN chats. Last time I did though, this girl dumped me on it and got to see me just "freeze". She thought there was a glitch, but it was running just fine...

Never ever allow yourself to be in the posiotion to be dumped on-line again, and your life will be much better....it's like a tailored fortune cookie just for you.
