A webcam photo tool for Google Gadgets

problems

The server is getting a good bunch of white pictures. Why? It implies you are pressing the "save" or "send" button with actually no picture shown. Some causes:

You need to select the right camera source. This is done by right click in the FlashPlayer window, and selecting the "Configuration..." menu in the pop up.
Your camera could be not supported by Adobe Flashplayer. Does it work with other Flash apps?
Your camera driver could be in use from other aplication. In Macs, the best solution is to select other camera sources, as two or three different ones are provided. Generically, try to close applications related to video.
You could be trying the gadget without camera, are you?

If you have some hint, please email me to gmail.com (account al.rivero).

this is the google desktop version; it should work in windows machines, it could work in Macs, and it should work in iGoogle for users having Google Desktop for Windows.

If you want to share your picture, you must take note of its ID (for instance in the Options or in the Download menu) and send it to your friends, jointly with a note telling them to get the gadget from http://demofoto.hurriquest.eu/nocorras.gg The ID of a photo can be entered in the Options... menu.

All the pictures are stored in this server. A new picture with the same ID replaces the previous one (and gets replaced in external gadgets when they refresh the link). So you can update your friends about your mood and looks, or you canjust bail out by sending a black picture.

please feedback to al.rivero to my account in gmail.com. Some ironing, basically webcam detection, is in process, and I am interested of hearing of models where the system is not working, or any kind of problems. I tested it with a Lenovo with Vista.
