Hi Calphool
ya it seems to be coming along now! good work! Its great you have your daughter doing some signs!! Sorry I did not get back to you about my camera and everything. I dont know much about it except that its a low end one i got for cheap. its made by dynex and the program it uses is called video impressions 1.6 - on the box it only list the avi format. is there a program that i could download to compress the files?

Hi there Jamie!
Let's try something. Go here:
Labtec.com > Support > Downloads
And download the Labtec camara software. I've used it with my Creative Webcam and my Labtec, and it seems to work with both, so there's a good chance it'll work with yours also. It has a program called "QuickCam", and that program lets you record video (and also set the start and stop time so all your movies can be the same length--it also gives you a countdown before it starts recording so you can get ready), and it also lets you select a compression codec when you save the video.
Hopefully the Labtec software will work for you. It's what I'm using.
I think this is kind of fun! Hey, by the way, keep copies of your .AVI files. If for some reason Simon's sponsors end up taking the site down, we wouldn't want to lose all these videos--it's a big investment in time!
I'm really surprised how almost all of your signs are the same as here in Iowa. I thought that there'd be a bigger difference between Vancouver (I think that's where you're from) and Iowa.
