Editor's Review for WebcamMax
Add thousands of cool effects to webcam video for live video chats or recording
WebcamMax is a program that gives you the possibility of editing the settings of your webcam.
Since this is an ad-supported product, you should pay attention when
installing WebcamMax. It offers to download and install some third-party
components that it doesn't need in order to fully function, as well as
to make some changes to your web browsers.
Once you initiate the application with the user-friendly interface, you
can set WebcamMax as the default webcam for selected programs (e.g.
Yahoo Messenger, Skype, YouTube).
So, you can add various effects such as "Box", "Double H", "Fatter", "4 Grids", "Pinch", "Swirl", "Skew Right" and "Thinner".
But you can also add animations (e.g. "Butterfly Fluttering", "Cupid's
Arrow") and backgrounds (e.g. "Animal - Dragons", "Mushroom Cloud"),
emotions (e.g. "Amazing", "Heart Broken").
Furthermore, you can add faces, filters (e.g. film purple, emboss red,
mosaic, shadow), frames (e.g. "Animal - Monkey", "Batman") and scenes
(e.g. "Mirror", "Newspaper"), as well as take a snapshot, record or
pause video, get more effects, open picture files to add them to the
video, add Flash and subtitles, play media, enable picture-in-picture,
doodle, and more.
In the "Options" menu, you can set WebcamMax to automatically run at
system startup and to automatically check for updates, change the
interface skin and language, select webcam source rate and size, audio
input and line, and others.
The program uses a moderate-to-high amount of system resources, displays
instrunctions and hasn't popped up any errors during our tests. We
strongly recommend WebcamMax to all users who want to have a little fun
with their webcam.
