Ducati,

Here's a link for you...

Below the video feed is a link to go to the webcam for the other town square. Enjoy!

Thanks, Pturner -are you able to make the video bigger than the approx. 2"X 3.5" view that I'm seeing? Do they vary the view or is it usually the same?

No, you can't change the size. It opens in a window that is not scalable. I'm not sure if they vary the view at LSL. I don't recall seeing it change.

As for the one at SS, as TommyT pointed out earlier in this thread, sometimes the SS webcam operator can remind you of a "this is your brain on drugs" commercial.

Well, in fairness to TommyT, he didn't actually say that. But, if he had, I would agree.

When I go to the above mentioned site by Pturner all I get to is a Yahoo site. Is there some other way to access the web cams?

There are ways to enlarge, however it becomes extremely grainy. If you can bring it up on either Internet Explorer browser, or in any picture editing software where one can enlarge the pic (like Picasa or Adobe) that also works, but pic still not very clear. ...barb

Everyone look tomorrow (Sunday). Norman Lee & the Boondock Saints willl be at Spanish Springs. The crowd will be better.
I live in Mira Mesa and go to SS VERY often. But Sensation Duo & cool temps kept me away today.

If you are using IE 7 or 8 you can hole the ctrl (control) and roll your mouse to make the image larger or smaller. On the LSL cam I can go up to about 180% and then things get really grainy. On the SS cam you may just want to forget playing around with the size as most of the time at 100% it is not clear.

One thing on changing the size don't forget to change it back to 100% or when you go to other web pages such as TOTV the fonts and layout will be at the size you were playing at.

Also in the lower right corner of the IE 7 or 8 browser screen you will see a percent figure. Make sure that is at 100% when you are done playing and everything will be fine.

You will have to cut and paste the link line into the URL line of your browser or right click on the link and select "open in new window". That should get you there.
