Webcam32 is a robust product, but it's not for the technically timid. To view periodic stills and video locally and online with your Web account, you must adapt HTML code from Surveyor's files into your Web page to enable the uploads. There are no wizards, and help documentation is sparse.

Some functions, such as image rotation, debugging controls, and text chat are bonuses. But the program's core functions are difficult to implement, and the interface is a barrage of option menus. Most of the features you expect are present, but you'll need patience and frequent trips to support pages to get your money's worth.
