Just thought I would share something with other job seekers out there especially with all of the buzz about video resume's. My friend who as also recently laid off had a resume' webcast produced by a firm out of Dallas. He uploaded a few images and his resume and they came back with the following:

They're doing one for me as we speak and we only paying $99 bucks and in my opinion they look better than the one I did propping my brother's camcorder on the book shelf:)
Hope this can help someone else out.
