Title: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: Nonentity on January 27, 2009, 08:37:40 AM I ran across this app a while back, but they just now finally released a PC version (it was Mac only prior).
http://www.poladroid.net/ It turns something like this: (http://www.thenonentity.com/poladroid1.jpg) Into something like this: (http://www.thenonentity.com/poladroid1-p.jpg) You drag images into the app, and it slowly goes from brown into a developed picture, and you can take a snapshot of how it looks at any point through the 'development' process. It's kinda neat, I figured some of you might get a kick out of it. Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose!

These Facebook pictures don't make themselves! It's in the terms of service that I have to not look at the camera, I'm sorry. Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: stray on January 27, 2009, 01:52:05 PM That's pretty cool.
Development process takes way too long though. Can I turn it off? :awesome_for_real: Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: schild on January 27, 2009, 02:01:01 PM Yea, I watched the demo.
What's up with the simulation aspect? Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: stray on January 27, 2009, 04:28:06 PM I guess you can get some "retro" effects by developing early..
My guitar looks cool (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/lonestar627/JazzmasterandVibro-King2-pola.jpg) Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: schild on January 27, 2009, 07:30:41 PM Ok, it's now cool.

Too bad I have to exit the program to label and resize them. Dumb. Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: NiX on January 27, 2009, 08:40:02 PM :heart: :awesome_for_real: :heart:

Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: stray on January 28, 2009, 06:40:23 AM Looks pretty nasty actually.
Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: SnakeCharmer on January 28, 2009, 06:41:26 AM Awesome? That looks absolutely disgusting.
Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: Sky on January 28, 2009, 07:09:31 AM I like Stray's (not just because I want his guitar and amp!), but I think maybe it's a little too crisply focused for a polaroid?
Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: Nonentity on January 28, 2009, 07:22:22 AM No, shutupshutup. It is AWESOME.
SCHILD WHAT IS THAT Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: SnakeCharmer on January 28, 2009, 07:23:09 AM A heart attack on a piece of wax paper.

McGangBang - A junior chicken put in the middle of a double cheeseburger. That's a picture of the one I ate last night. It was SO good.SCHILD WHAT IS THAT Title: Re: Poladroid - make your digital photos look awful on purpose! Post by: Krakrok on January 28, 2009, 02:56:28 PM Picasa 3 does that and throws all your new fake polaroids out as a collage.
