How does one take still photographs with a webcam?

You can do that with the software that comes with some better webcams, but resolution would not be all that good.

Flickr - has some good stuff. Most of it is free if you ask the people taking the shots. I have used some photos from that site int he past and they have worked great.

http://www.oatmealmedia.net has a program that lets you capture webcams and save to photo or video.

What I suggest is an all in one, color scanner, color printer. That way you can both scan and print in color. Multifunction printers have come down in price quite a bit since they were first introduced. Also most scanners come with neat little software packages that allows you to manipulate photos and pictures. I don't think all digital cameras come with such software. Usually they just come with software that transfers the picture to the computer, but of course each camera package is different, ditto for webcams.\n\nThere are services at Wal Mart and other photo places that will transfer pictures to CDs, but you'd have to look at what's available around you.

If you mean take pictures from the camera then the software that came with it will have an option (there may also be, as on mine, a button to take a picture).\n\nIf you want to take a picture of what you are watching the simplest way is to use the 'print screen' function on your keyboard ans paste it into MS paint.\n\nI heard there were utils on the net to capture pic's but I have never had the need to test them.\n\nEnjoy

When the webcam window is the one in focus, hit Alt-PrintScreen. Now you copied that window in the computer's memory. Now paste it in PhotoShop, or Word if you want.

1) hit 'pause' in the video you are watching where you what to grab the still image\n2) hold the 'ctrl' (bottom left/right of keyboard), 'alt' (bottom left/right) and 'print screen (also called 'prt sc', top right of keyboard) buttons on your screen at the same time (on some laptops  you need to hold  the 'fn' and 'prt sc' buttons. You can also skip the first step and just do this step.\n3) go to photoshop/word/powerpoint/other photo software and open a new document and select either 'paste' or hit 'ctr' and 'v' on your keyboard\n4) voila, see your image in the new doc\n\ncheers from an online video editor :)\nd

Use a digital camera and take a new picture.

The documentation that came with the camera should tell you if this is possible.  I have a Casio QV-R40 digital camera that I've tried using as a webcam.  It came with a USB cord so I can transfer the pictures and video I record with it (no sound), but I primarily use my SD card anyway.  I've tried looking for software and downloading firmware updates for the camera, but nothing worked.  Webcams are generally inexpensive anyhow.  \nHope you find out.  Good luck.

You need a software like MS Netmeeting. Then You can See Webcam or like that.\n\nENJOY !

In a chat room, you don't.\nWithin Yahoo, camera use is point-to-point... in other words, it operates in a separate widdow, outside the chat room

You can't hook up a normal Camcorder to a computer and use it as a web cam. The camcorder must either hook up via Fire Wire or USB in order to use it as a webcam. \n\nIf you want to use a older camcorder you must purchase either a video transfer board or a video card that allows video input.
