Firecracker, is, I believe, an ultravid software, (at least I first heard about it from ultravid) and is presented as being an off-the-shelf ifriends style camshow solution.

Alexshark, there's a big difference between the way a one or couple girls site is run, and a 24/7 camgirl business is run. You sound like you are talking only about the full blast camgirl studio in your commentary, which all sounded pretty much right on.

I haven't figured out yet wether camhunniez wants to do a small camgirl site or start a full blast camgirl studio. ( I think she wants to start small and grow bigger.) Most of the suggestions I gave her were based on the small camgirl site model.

How much do you figure it costs per station to set up a camgirl studio?

Other than the stations, what other costs would there be to set up a camgirl studio?

What software do you use for your camgirl studio?

Maybe we can get some single-girl webcam site operators to talk about how they run their business?

Ok so...

Firecracker is Ultravid's software, it's java based chat and video and asp pages.
You need to install a server software and a client software on every performer's pc.
The performer video go to the server that reboradcasts to all the viewers.

What I was talking about was a 24/7 camsite but I used the 1girl example to try to explain my math.

To set up a station... well don't need much.. to stay on the budget...
1 Pc, 1 webcam or better and old VHS camcoder with remote and capture card, a couple of lights, a bed or a couch, some decorations, 128kb (the more the better) upload speed (as long as someone is rebroadcasting your signal or you have got only 1 or 2 viewers in the same time), possibly one public ip but most of the time not necessary.

Other costs... well I can't see any significant ones, maybe some advertising on local papers looking for performers.

Software... I work for videochat sites so they provide the client software.

PS : have a look at http://www.webcamxp.com ...that should be a good software for single camgirl site.
