Iv'e got a web cam that came with my PC.

it is all set up but i have never used it.

 

I have sent 1 video email to my bruv in the states, but thats as far as it goes.

 

any way i dont want to scare any kids that might be on the other end.

As i have`nt got a pc as yet would it be better to get a digital one or will a standard one be sufficeint (i dont think that that spelling is correct)

Kaw

all web cams are digital, youll need a socket to plug it into though, and im not sure if your internet telly has one, have a look, if youve got a usb port, and im not to sure if you can install the drivers for one either, youll have to check the book that came with the telly

i hope your not to sloshed to read this , happy bday by the way

 

url: website addresses ie www.blablabla.com is called the url(cant remember what it stans for off hand)

 

and ubb is like html(the code you use to build websites) only its a simpler version thats used in forums and the like.

to link to another site in ubb you type

www.blabla.com

ubb does all the hard work for you ie it puts in the comands

looks like there is something missing, thats the only bit you need to type www.blabla.com and it goes between the two comands

 

to do the same in html would be

 

href="http://www.blabla.com"

 

so you can see its basicaly a short cut, and it works very well, next time you do a post, have a look to your left you will see a link saying *ubb code is on, click on that, and you will se a description of how to use ubb for things like making your text bold in a post and all sorts

 

hope this helps
