facebook camera shows mirror image

The built-in iSight cam on my display shows a mirror (reverse) image. Can I flip the image? There does not seem to be a Mac Facebook setting for this.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.1), 13" with 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Hi,


You are using either iChat, Photo Booth or Face Time as other apps don't do this.


For you it is like looking in a Mirror but in iChat and Face Time your Buddy or contact will see the picture the normal way round (just like as if they were stood opposite you)


Photo Booth has an Auto Flip option in the Edit Menu.


iGlasses is a System Add On that can Flip the pics for you for Face Time and iChat.

It has recently been updated to Version 3 which adds extra effects (as well) in panel similar to the one IChat and Photo Booth has.
