Evocam is the software you want and then you just code the page to refresh every 30 secs the same way you did back in the day.

it keeps saying no refresh option selected.

what's the deal?

No idea. I don't cam anymore and haven't used Evocam in over a year. I'm assuming it wants you to set a refresh option? Not a clue, sorry. :o/

Wild. This is incredibly low tech and humbug, but can you use the "snapshot" feature of your webcam to take the photo and then upload it manually? Yeah, a lot more work and you're probably talking about actually uploading one picture every two or three minutes, but that's the only thing that springs to mind. :/

Of course, I have virtually no technical aptitude.
