Wayne, Thanks for the information. Right now I will leave it at being logged out. I do not foresee a reason for me to go back there.
It's so much fun reading the enthusiasm everyone is exhibiting. So this is what Pinecam used to be like. No wonder all the long time posters yearned for the old days. This feels like family. Enthusiasm is contagious. All sorts of ideas are flowing all around us. I'll have to find my niche too. RIght now I feel a little useless and non contributing given my work obligations, but I see my lovely Sunshine is casting rays for us. What a precious gal.

I do not have the view MAM has, but I do have a webcam that has been put in place for a year or so.

or

for a single image.
I use it to see if snow is accumulating mostly, but I always find deer and a squirrel at the bird feeder. I don't think the picture is too bad considering it is a very cheap Logitech webcam looking through a dirty window. I wrote the script to capture the image, resize it, clean it up a little, and put some text on it.
To avoid an unneeded traffic load to individual cameras, I would suggest a tech person come up with a script to pull the images and store them on the 285Bound server and show them from there. Or, as the case of ConquerCam (a webcam software utility), the image could be ftp'd to the 285Bound server.
You can delete a user without deleting all their posts. You can delete all the posts without deleting a user. You can disable an account but delete all the posts, you can disable an account and delete all the posts. You can do it anyway you want.
I'm using a bash script in linux with fswebcam to grab the image, imagemagick to resize, clean up, and add text, and sftp to put the image on the web server. I have a cron job that does this every 5 minutes. I would be happy to share it if someone wants it.
