First: AWESOME project, thanks to everyone who worked
on it!

Now what I'm seeing:
The raw bitmap data, at least from my webcam
(Logitech QuickCam Pro 3000) is Y inverted, as
discussed in the following thread:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework/browse_thread/thread/cd87b02f6620bc96/4c42f4d3624e4b94?q=bitmap+%22upside+down%22+dotnet&rnum=2&hl=en#4c42f4d3624e4b94

So it shows up Y inverted in the client as well. I
added the following line after the image was created in
the server's "DoIt" function:
image.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.RotateNoneFlipY);

If this is just a quirk of my hardware, then feel free
to close this bug! But maybe a note in the source code
at least for others who are confused as I was?

Thanks again!

    Glad you are finding the library useful.

    I don't suppose I could convince you that the bitmap is right-
    side-up, it's your monitor that is up-side-down? No?

    Ok, you are right. I've made the change. It will go into v1.1.
