just to run it by you guys - we could make the launch webcam feed appear sharper if we get our live feed in the same size like these guys have, about a quarter of our current live feed frame size. That can be done, we thought it's better to keep the larger size.

I dunno - if there's enough interest, we could put the smaller frame up.

Here's a thought. I have no idea what kind of costs we are talking about here but if there are enough people who would like an improved camera, maybe someone could take up a collection. Maybe some sort of a benefit event could be held to cover some of the costs.

This is a community resource that most of us really appreciate. It is a marketing expense for OEX at the moment but if the community wants something better, maybe the community could help defray the upgrade costs.

OK, I'll ask...why? The current web cam serves its purpose fine and I like being able to hide from it when I'm launching/landing/loading. It drives me nuts, and I've heard many others on BWE complain about it too, when people passing by walk up to my boat, don't say a thing, and then proceed to check out my boat, my gear, and my catch ...you do realize that this is an invite for everyone with an internet connection to do just that right? Maybe I'm weird, but no thanks.

Click the webcam, check the surf, check the tide, check the sun, then go fish.
