MSN: how to record webcam

[Dieter Aaaa]

Hey


I have MSN Messenger 6.2 and Messenger Plus 3.01

Is there a way to make pictures of the video screen ? I mean: can i record
the video taken from my corrspondents webcam ?
I do not need the entire video, but so now and then a screenshot on a
moment i decide.

Oh, yes i know: PrintScreen and then paste in MS Photo Editor or so.
But: very complicated, lot of copy, paste, cut, save as, etc

Is there a nice add-on proggie for MSN Messenger which allow me with one
push on a button to take the right picture and save it in the right
directory with a filename i can choose ?

Greetings Dieter,

This is no "nice proggie" I'm afraid, you'll simply have to capture the screen either doing
the way you have been or using something like SnagIt (http://www.techsmith.com).
