I need it to be run on demand by apache, I want it to take a snapshot when I load a webpage. Can it be run as a cgi-bin application or from PHP script?Big Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11083898693795465537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7607949.post-41907107720046338562008-04-10T07:21:00.000+10:002008-04-10T07:21:00.000+10:00this is just what i was searching for!thanks for t...this is just what i was searching for!<BR/>thanks for this tip!Sebastianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01206711978884883504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7607949.post-72492642274123148452007-07-04T02:56:00.000+10:002007-07-04T02:56:00.000+10:00I had isightcapture working via cron and now it wo...I had isightcapture working via cron and now it won't save any pictures. I see that it runs, but no jpg gets saved.

I'm dreaming of a program or script which will take a photo of me with isight and automatically set it as my display picture for instant-messaging clients, so people can see me as I am at that moment but without the awkwardness of a webcam. Any ideas if this is possible? Let me know.
