Are you familiar with topic remapping (
http://www.ros.org/wiki/Remapping%20Arguments)? It would allow you to run
your converter node (without the above change) like so:

rosrun image_converter_pkg_name image_converter
image_topic:=/gscam/image_raw

You would obviously need to use the correct package and executable names,
but the bit following the executable name is the topic remapping magic.

On a separate note, did you go through all of the ROS tutorials at
http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials/ ? I would expect remapping to be
introduced somewhere in them.
