gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

I download and installed gps-camera on my OS2008 N800 and it install fine. Also WORKS better than when i had it on 2007 os. Plus my cam on 2008 LOOKS OH SO MUCH BETTER here is the link to it for anyone who like to try it. Also you can upload your photos right from the app to your flicker account. Fast and easy to get photos online.

Very nice ! (i hope it gets picasa web support as well :) )

I installed it but there are no instructions. How does one use it?

your best bet is to just play around with it there is only like 5 things or so you can do with it. if you like to upload to flicker then setup an account with them 1st.



Also if anyong knows how i can get webcam-server install on 2008 os please let me know. https://garage.maemo.org/projects/webcamserver/ it worked great on 2007. but it looks like the .deb is not working with 2008 yet.. is there anyway i can make it install !!!


thanks Craig

Glad other people are finally discovering it. Great program, much better than any other camera app at this point.

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

I'll second that. I don't want to get into Flickr vs. name your online photo service, but I find Flickr to be a PITA. Picasa is just (for me) a more intuitive, simple photo server.

I also like this app, but the first time I used it my n800 (OS2008) crashed. Oh well - I'll keep trying.

Now this actually makes the camera useful again! Why couldn't the other camera apps look this good?

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

Why does the look of the application make it more useful?

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

Probably he was just stating two different concepts on the same row.
One that is makes the camera useful, and the other that it also looks good (and wonder why other apps don't look so good [answer: because not all the people know about make good looking graphics]).

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

It is a good looking app. What I don't like is that every time I want to upload to flickr, I got to get another number.

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

Sorry a bit vague, the pictures look better than the other camera app. Not the app itself. Too bad you can't tell it where to save the images.

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

I didn't make myself clear. I seems that the camera will only take pics of the person holding the device and looking at the screen. If that's true, is it a web cam? What's the slider at the top right? What does GPS OFF do?
Thanks

hm, i don't see any location information been submited in flickr

Re: gps-camera on OS2008 N800 WORKS GREAT
 

Not true, the camera will take pics of whatever you point it at:

If you're using an N800, you can rotate the camera...if you're using an N810, you can rotate the device:)

The GPS OFF indicator will change to GPS ON when you have your GPS on/associated. I don't think tapping it has any effect (it didn't for me).
