You will need to install some software to get USB webcam images to the web. Have a look at Yawcam or FWINK, search on Google.

You'll need web hosting that permits FTP as well.

Thank you Gina and Paul. Found a webcam program that seems to work. Now I just have to get a better sighting for the cam..needs to look at the sky...take a look at www.wgift.net

Bill, you've got the webcam link pointing to localhost - http://127.0.0.1/broadcasting/broadcast.html - so only you can see it.

Steve,

I'm using Digi-Watcher: webcam software. Do you have any idea where I can find the proper

address? Sorry I'm not as up to speed as others but I'm new at this.

Thanks

Bill

Hi Bill,

The external address to access your webcam page is http://www.wgift.net/broadcast.html

I've just looked at that page and I can see snow!

Put this address in Cumulus in the webcam address section in setup, instead of the address you have at the moment. Do a Cumulus webupdate from the file menu and the menu on your pages should reflect the correct address.

Hey all, Thanks for the observations.

What I did was add a file page to my website and ftp the webcam to there. Then I used that link in Cumulus. I'll try the link what Steve gave me tommorow. As for not I have the cam off as it's dark and all you can see is black. BTW all were right , snow and trees, need to resite the cam to the sky...a little upward should do the trick.

Thanks again.

Happy new year

Bill
