I took this screenshots randomly from google images 
. It might be your pictures in there. It’s OK right?
Installation
The installation method is easy and the package is available in the ubuntu repositories.
Terminal Command:
sudo apt-get install cheese
After the installation, you can access cheese in Applications -> Graphics -> Cheese
In my opinion is this software is pretty cool, but it’s really similar just like Mac OS default PhotoBooth. But it’s OK, I like the interface. Overall Cheese is an extremely useful application for the user who had a webcam, I think this software should be bundled by default with the GNOME desktop environment , but cheese should fix some problem, because I noticed some comments are complained about the video recording problem. If you also have a same problem, you can report those bug at bugs.gnome.com . That’s all of my opinion and Cheese review.

udah install cheese tapi sayang yg versi 2.22.3 ada bug, bug-nya setelah menggunakan video lampu webcam lsg mati & kadang gambar lsg freeze, mau install versi unstable 2.23.5 tapi blum ada versi deb installer, gimana ya cara membuat deb dari tar package.
@anonymous: sebenarnya sampai saat ini belum bisa membuat deb dari tar package.. coba tar package itu di extract dulu lalu masuk ke terminal, ketik “cd” dan drag folder hasil ekstrak itu ke terminal. jangan lupa delete tanda ‘ di bagian depan dan belakang dari directory. Lalu ketik kode “make” dan “./configure” lalu jika semuanya berhasil. Langsung saja ketik sudo make install . Beres deh. Memang agak panjang, tapi itu memang stepnya.
