Hey,

First of all - I liked the scrolling text at the bottom of your post - I think you might be the first person to have used that.

You should be able to load the image into another Movie Clip that you can use as the container for the image.  You can place that Movie clip at a certain position in your movie - then the image wil also be loaded into that position.  You can also get a little more complicated with that Movie clip that's acting as a container for your web cam images by giving it different Frame's - I'm not sure what your intentions are with the different frames - but potentially you could load different web cam images into the various frames in your Container MC, so you can switch between them.

Once your web cam images are inside the Movie clip - you can manipulate that Movie clip.  For example you can change the size/position/etc - This would allow you to resize it for example - Or drag the Web cam images (in the MC container) to different parts of the Movie.

Is that what you Mean?
That's about it. Had to try the Move thing

Yeah, he is the first....like Jeff said.  Use the LoadMovie with the MC as your target.  Use the _x, _y, _xscale, and _yscale properties of the MC to manipulate it.
just testin

Not on a button on a regualar frame.... cuzz i want it to load by it self 24 7

Hey Steve....I have never used a webcam before but I'll see what I can do.  So your webcam....does it save an image file to your server?  If so, and it is a Flash supported filetype you can just use the loadMovie command.  You put the address of the file, the MC that you wish to load it into.  You would move it by using this code from the movie clip.....
                   _x=;
                   _y=;
                   _xscale=;
                   _yscale=;

Just put in the numbers.....pretty simple, unless if your webcam works a little different than I thought.

lol
im cinfused...do i put the #'s in the front or behind.... can you give me an example..

Thx alot

[BurtonRider1983]

lol...you put the number after the equals sign.  I gave you an example...just fill in the numbers.  You put that code in your MC....if you want to change the properties of the MC from outside the MC, then you would use somthing like this....

_root.instanceName._xscale=50;

This would make the MC 50% as wide.

_root.instanceName._yscale=150;

This would make the MC %150 as tall...so one and a half times.
