Hi mate..As far as programming is concerned, you could even learn at home in your garrage..No school here in Nigeria with Old computer science lecturer will teach core object oriented programming..if you really want to learn from a school, then go to a MIT or Harvard..or simply go to any school of your choice and be committed, burn the night candles(PHCN is not your friend)..get tutorials online.."That's all"

Hi..all things are possible in programming world, with that being said, but I see a problem here, especially when you mentioned "real-time video streaming" in a country where internet is still thriving! Since you said parents would have to login through a portal, you could easily design a website where an IP Camera sends streams online. Camera can be controlled remotely to view target environment. Theoretically this would function in a multi user environment where two or more parents get to control the camera(You know women will start keeping malice over the use of camera...laughs). Yea it will work but have you considered time and cost?.. Good luck

majinice07: why don't you do it here so that we also can learn from you guys

Hi mate I am not sure the solution is meant for the forum, since it is a school project or something and besides it will involve hardware programming too..If she had posted some codes as regard the project, then people can actually modify or help her on the lines she'd be having problems with..only then can you get to learn from the project. But which of the languages do you speak?

Why not pay for the license to use the application...

Well what can I say, it is not a bad idea but some questions though: 1. How would parents percieve threat, is it going to be video app like skype and does it mean that the child (a toddler ) would have a mobile or camera device attached to his/her pampers or there'll be a camera sync to parents mobile? 2. Who or what would trigger the alert, a pinch or baby cry? 3. Of course this must be a web app, which means there'll be internet at the baby's location, right? 4. Parents want safety of their kids and also want peace of mind so as to focus on other things that brings food to the table, dats the reason they are takn to pre school, with your idea, it means parents can as well leave their kids at home and watch them via their mobile phones..
With that being said, You could use a cry sensor (a chip I would have to program for your purpose) to alert parents via text message, that can be done. It is a good idea in theory, anything can be done, you could contact me paulodiete@gmail.com .Lets look into it..

You have to consider the cost of running your application and other factors..If you could arrange for a meeting we can discuss on how we can develop for you a robust and custom application tailored towards your business needs..offline I believe but with cloud capabilities, you can contact me or have us call you so as to discuss how we can be of help.

Personally I don't give out source code, talking from experience...with the source code not disclosed, I stand secured. It is a different case if I am working full time as an employed staff for the said company. If the company wants an application, we programmers can deliver but when you start talking about source code, it gives us the idea that you have some kinda plan. I believe source code delivery should strictly be the programmer's choice if to give it out or not. At most you have the functional application. Also why talk about CV? Hello that is why it is called a freelance job..I do not have to start stories about how "I got my admission into Luton University"..You should ask for profile, to show accomplishments! I also observed from your post, the fact that you didn't start by saying "A company based in Lagos requires freelance programmers to work on..e.g A crypting software or something, rather you want a full details of our list of programs!

Hi mate! Sorry it took this long to reply to your post, recently..last month precisely, I got roobed of my laptop (..all my apps, source codes and development tools all gone...ufff!) If your app is a window based app, with native .exe or msi extension..do send me just d name you intend to use for your app, so I can write a front end for it which will include the serial module. My mail paulodiete@gmail.com

I like it quiet...veeery quiet and night coding is actually good for me cos when others are sleeping, I have all the time to come up with ideas for myself

@Danyl what language are you using? one of the best way to curb piracy of your app (offline apps) is to call users or have them call you for the serial key..that way you'd have a database of your clients. I believe your application is a desktop app (not html or any site things...)? Do not bother about the keygen...I will compile a small app, which will be integrated into your application as the registration module (this registration module will automatically get the username of users pc and the hardware ID. Users will call(toll free, I believe) or use short code sms...which ever way to get the key to activate the application...They will send you the username and hardware ID from which you will generate a serial key (Note: serial keys generated is unique and do not repeat,therefore two users can't use one serial key since it is system generated and uses MD5 encryption algorithm) Note: I am going to be using my compiler to dev a keygen for you (I have been using it over the years and it is confirmed to work)

2. I believe with whatever language you are using, you could develop your own installer. You do not need any installer to create the unique ID, The keygen would solve that problem. But if you can't code an installer, you could use inno setup to distribute your app.

Here's a screen shot of my serial generator! There are two parts to it, first part is integrated in your app, which is to automatically get the username of users pc and unique hardware ID, after which they are to send you that so as for you to use the serial keygen (second part) to generate a unique serial key for the application - 30days, 90 days, or full version

Sorry I worked with those languages for too long. If you'd like to use my compiler... I Could develop a splash screen and the registration algorithm (using user hardware ID and username to generate a unique key), also the keyreg for ya. It is going to be a small exe app which will point to your main app...if reg is successfull, it will launch your app. If user back dates or tries to manipulate the app, it will "self-destruct" <-- meant that in a nice way...lol

Using a server time stamp would work, get user hardware ID (Board serial), Current Server Date and other info you think is best(Do Not use Hard Disk serial because that changes at every format...I could even develop a small app to change Hard Disk serial without formatting the drive)and SEND to server for stamping.Each time the application is launched, it confirms with the server before use. The disadvantage however, is the fact that users will require internet to use your app. Personally I don't do web things...I am strictly a desktop app developer, but all my apps have cloud capabilities. I had to develop a keygen which will combine the username of the PC and board serial to generate a unique serial key which cannot be used on another PC.

Can program it for ya

Send me a screen shot, I will do it for ya

@netesy isn't that illegal? @Horpy4 contact the developers of the application, requesting for the sourcecode or use an opensource app...

Perfecting my compiler...
