imaging edge

[Michael]

the only thing I cab figure I did to get it to work was change the order I
introduced new things. what I mean by that is I think I started the program
and then turned on the camera but I needed to plug thw camera in and then
start the program. I think I had reas somewhere that if you do it wrong you
need to reboot the system.
