Asked 5/14/2007

I would like to use my own webcam to put my image on my XP desktop (active desktop?)?

My business requires me to spend a great deal of time on the telephone. I've been doing a little AIM pro video conferencing and I find that seeing my own image, as shocking as it is, is very conducive to focusing on the task at hand.

What's an easy way to do this. I have a USB webcam and am running XP SP2, however, I can't locate active desktop on my system.

I think you may have confused terms or I have misunderstood your question..

Active desktop would be viewable by you,,if you could broadcast your desktop then it would be viewable by others.

There are a few programs that could do that .I haven't had much luck with them..
No luck at all..

to set items with active desktop you can have a webpage open and right click item to see if can be set as an active desktop item..

What I think you are asking is can you have people view you via your webcam,,

If I'm right go to http://snapfiles.com/

do a search for streaming webcam.

There's more of that stuff than you can count now a days..

Good search term on internet would be
" streaming web cam script "
