    Hey, question for those savy with HP notebooks. I was wondering if the built in webcam on my HP Pavilion dv2500t has any sort of effects software that came with the laptop. Kinda like the effects that they have with the macbooks, and other laptops, what with mirrored effects, inverted colors, and stuff like that. I have been looking everywhere in the program, and i can't seem to find anything, which would lead me to believe that there aren't any effects built in, and brings me to my second question. Is there any software either through HP or elsewhere, that I can buy or download that would give me effects like that?

    Hey, thanks for the quick response! I figured as much with the built in software, and I'll look into Nero. Thanks!

    actually, you can use muvee autoproducer software (that comes preinstalled),
    which works like the macbook software (it allows you to apply styles and such)
