Now that's not fair! I never said you were ugly. And thankfully you didn't show me your ugly ass either.
/me fiddles with camera
If this works, you can vengefully mock my 2-week stubble :heee:

I've got a cam, but I'm not going anywhere near filthy MSN messenger :razz:
Monqui, do you know if there's a webcam plugin for Gaim?

Orph, in about two years of being online quite a fair bit, I have not once seen you online (err... except now that is, but you aren't responding :smile: ).

You need Trillian Pro for Webcams. Unfortunately, I can't use the MSN portion right now until Trillian updates since MSN just upgraded and it causes Trillian to crash right now.

no one has to like msn messenger, ( altho i have never had problems with it, i think people just like to bitch about the microsoft part :sad: ) but at least have the courtesy to download the newest version, and just use it for the camera option..
if you have another usable option please feel free to do so, but crying about MSN as if it were a crime to exist is poor attitude :razz:
anywho's.. i will be online in a few to accept any incoming camera request in a few..

Well, if you interested in what people like; what we did at one of my other favorite bbs's was all upload pics of ourselves on one post. I got the idea from my buddy "corndog" over there. It beets the hell out of msn. Msn is a very evil prog, and all should stay far far away. I say the same thing about windows, but people don't seem to listen. XD

i have the fringe benefit of having a job that takes me all over the USA.. i have met at least a half dozen of my online friends.. it is a scary experience, not knowing whom you might meet, but a rewarding one so far..
so far, no one at SP have i met, but i have an appointment to meet doc brasso, and KFS when i go to nebraska, and juim when i get to california..
i hope someday to fulfill this event :smile:

I dont have a webcam, but Orph's seems to work well enough. It seems kind of odd though, seeing a person while you talk over a messenger. The framerate isnt great either.
