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:



Into something like this:



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.

But that Captain's salami tray was tight, yo. You plump for the roast pork loin, dogg?

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.

I guess you can get some "retro" effects by developing early..

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?

Picasa 3 does that and throws all your new fake polaroids out as a collage.

Those don't look nearly as polaroid-y.  The color tweaking is important.
