Chatting over the Internet is a great way to stay in touch. It’s easy, fun and free. But throwing in a Webcam makes it so much better. You can chat with folks as though they were in the room.
But did you know you could add special effects to your Webcam? You can add graphics and text. Make it look like you’re lounging on a tropical beach. Change your hairstyle to something crazy. You can even make it look like it’s snowing in your house.
ManyCam makes all this possible. It has some pretty advanced features. It can recognize you in the video feed. You can add a new background into the video. But you will remain unobstructed. You can move around freely, and the background won’t affect you.
Don't want to be on a beach? It has a large selection of static backgrounds. But you can also use a short video as a background. Add a flowing waterfall or a crackling fire.
It also features face tracking. You can add objects like hats, glasses and moustaches to the video. These are automatically positioned in the right place on your face. And when you move around, they stay in place. It’s a pretty cool effect.
If you can’t find an effect you like, create your own. You can create any effect you want with ManyCam. You can make backgrounds, static or video, and face-tracking objects. You can also share your custom effects on the ManyCam Web site.
ManyCam also allows you to split your Webcam between several applications. Normally, if you’re chatting on two applications, only one uses the Webcam. With this program, you can broadcast on multiple applications. So, several friends can see you at once.
