So i’ve pretty much wasted a weekend on this. All I need is some software that uses motion detection to trigger a camera, and upload either a jpg or movie to an ftp site (or email it to me)
Any ideas? All the stuff i’ve tried has either bombed out or photographed me at ‘unfortunate moments’ by accident haha (images deleted, don’t ask for the url) :crying:

softpedia has something like that if I remember correctly. You can also probably copy a few tutorials around for flash and that might work.

Well TC, lets just say my girlfriend didn’t find my ‘new security camera idea’ the least bit funny… after she kicked my nuts, neither did I haha. It _Was_ an accident during testing, really!
Temp, thanks for that. Any links would be apreciated, not got much time today. Thanks.

I thought it was gonna be more like a “I don’t have a girlfriend and I was lonely” sort of deal.
