Default Online Webcam?

Okay so I picked up a new webcam today and got it functioning. Now what I want is to set up one of those automatically-updating pages on my website with my webcam broadcasting live, at least when I'm online. But I'm confused as to how to do that. I tried a program called TimCam but it won't recognise the driver on my camera or something.

Does anyone know what I can do to get an online webcam going? Thanks.

I've never done one before. I would look around for similar programs that might do the job. Not sure if this is a good one, but it may be worth looking into.

This may help you, also. If not, at least I tried.

I'm thinking now that there may be something wrong with my camera setup, or driver, because I encounter a problem (forcing the program in question to close) whenever I try to run a number of programs, including ConquerCam. So I'm off to my camera's tech support site, whee.

I figured out the problem, and installed ConquerCam, but all I get is a green screen (not video with too much green in it, but a solid green screen. Here's my online webcam:

So I'm working on it...

You must have checked it when I had the program turned off. It has an "offline" image".

At least, you're getting there. I look forward to the complete setup.

Edit: YAY, it's you!!!

Yes that's me, so if you ever see anyone else, they stole my computer.

Maybe later y'all can see Kiwi.
