I am playing with a script inspired by an old CM routine. But I don't want to just import that one, I want to go in a different direction.

For the life of me, I can't get that to work and I have been looking everywhere, including in other scripts that take webcam pictures. I can take webcam pictures, but they all end up on the "captured" directory with a random name such as "823609430.jpeg"

Thank you for that tip, Doti!
I think I've got it to work now.
