It would be great if this module can be attached to cck as an extra field, so if i wanted to created a cck node type, a mugshot field-type would be an option for me.

I agree it would be great to see mugshots as nodes instead of being their own construct in the database. I've hacked together a proof-of-concept for how this might work (attached) and would very much appreciate testing, comments, and improvements. I say 'hacked together' not because it doesn't work, but because it's definitely rough around the edges. It relies on and borrows code from the mugshot.module and uses the mugshot table - but a real CCK implementation would likely store these fields using the CCK schema.

Criticism welcome.

Wow great work matt! That would be great if you could fully port it into a true CCK field. How about just a simple Webcam CCK Field? Good stuff!

Check out new CameraField module http://drupal.org/project/camera_field based on Mugshot.

I'm wondering if this "hacked" v5.x module could be ported up to D6? I haven't found a working alternative to this yet that doesn't require third party to make it work.

http://drupal.org/project/camera_field doesn't work, images are saved but never shown which renders it useless. also looks like its been abandoned (though not marked yet, dev never replies).

I am personally integrating the Mugshot module over views and panels into the
content profile, but working soon on an Mugshot integration into the http://drupal.org/project/imagebrowser module and into IMCE, so that my users have the possibility, to use Mugshots directly within the CKEditor.
