    Kevin, this is SO COOL, and FUN!! Thanks for this info. I have a question about the green screen-how does that work? I need to use it, because my hair is weird, and my and others' background effects don't work as well without it.

    This may sound like a silly question but it is real to me. I don't have a camera on my PC. Sound is fine but no camera. It appears you need to have a camera in order to change the background. I would hope I could pick a good background so there would be something to look at unless those with no camera have been hidden. Got any help on how this might be done?
