Can I take my picture with my web cam? It's built in to my laptop but I do't know how to use it! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Z

go to "mycomputer", there should be a webcam there(if not plug it in), double click it and there should be a button that says "take a still"

If it's a built in cam, try the following:

Start All Programmes you should see a program for it in your programs list, if not, look for "Cyberlink" within "All Programmes" then click on it

O o O oo

If it is a built in webcam it probably has software already installed.

As Bogof says, go to programmes and it should be in there. Once you have clicked on it it normally lets you take a still/video/mike etc.

Easiest way to do it is to........

expand the video window to the size you want the picture to be

adopt your pose and press the 'print screen key' (its on the top row of keyson your key board, the left hand button on the row of three on the right hand side, if that makes sence).

Next, open a picture program (paint is easiest and every computer has it, it will be in the accesories folder) and paste the picture into that program.

Lastly, trim your picture to taste. and save it.

Simples.
