Hi Andrew,
After the event I'd love to read a little write up of the setup you
required to make a photo booth within linux.
- software
- hardware
- how it hangs together
- how it performed on the night, and are you happy with the results.
Cheers
Steve

Hi Glenn,
SUCCESS! Thankyou. Even the printer is working correctly. My daughter
will love this, and I am very grateful, and moreso for the education.
I can get some sleep now.
Cheers

I have no idea why cheese would append the extra characters
It isn't uncommon for programs to create a temporary and then only
rename when the file is complete, perhaps this was changed in an
update
to cheese.
Anyway, it just means you would set the inotifywait to watch for the
moved_to instead of the close_write, so that you pick up the final
file, ie:
inotifywait -m -e moved_to ~/Pictures/Webcam --format "%w%f"
etc
