Reviewed by: CNET Staff
ManyCam is the freeware tool for you if you use both CamFrog and ICQ, or any other video chat program, and you want to use them simultaneously. It creates a "virtual" Webcam that replicates your currently installed camera. It then lets multiple applications access the video stream without conflict.
ManyCam is compatible with Yahoo, MSN, CamFrog, PalTalk, ICQ, Skype, YouTube, and more. Once you've installed ManyCam, you need to set ManyCam as the primary input for program that you want to use. ManyCam will automatically start when activate your Webcam through that program. The application includes a bunch of gimmicky features that let you change aspects of the background and foreground. You can map a new pair of cartoon eyes over your face, and they track pretty well to your movements, or you can show that your life is hell by replacing the background with flames.
There is an unfortunate toolbar that will install unless you opt out during setup, but other than that ManyCam is worthy of a Webcam Oscar for cool and useful tech.

Version: ManyCam Virtual Webcam 2.3.7
Pros: No more "webcam is being used by another application" messages when I try to use cam in MSN whilst using it in another app. Enables typing and/or drawing in your cam window. A whole bunch of superimposable images [some animated] and many more downloadable... flags, cartoon characters, face masks that track your face with varying degrees of success - you can also design your own overlays.
Cons: Hard to fault really.. , The manycam logo appears by default & I didn't figure out how to turn it off at first, but hey! it's free so a lil advertising is the least they deserve & I still recommend it to anyone who asks about it.
