The title says it all. User webcam system, displays on the profiles, and adds a "LIVE / OFFLINE" in the postbit/legacy. Users register their cam with the system, and it goes into a directory perhaps, or maybe the MEMBERLIST can just have a new sort option, and only show cams.

Could be Universally Innovative.

How do you suggest that could work? Most webcams are use in conjunction with services that broadcast the feed, ie. yahoo, msn, aim and so on; otherwise they would have to:

1. Host their own webcam server via the webcam software they use at most likely their IP.

2. How would you globally manage a "live/offline" system that is handled automatically and guaranteed to work with every system.

The only way I see this being viable is to create a standard by which each user with a webcam must adhere by.. that being a certain software, or a certain protocol for dealing with online/offline; other than that a rather simplistic modification.

ya could do it in flash like this

but i dont think its possible to run webcams without your own server as a backbone to generate the streams like you want and webcams sites are costly streaming video aint cheap

and if you can afford webcam streaming your best bet would get a paid programmer to design something strictly for your site
