The prints come out in business-card size. I use them in my sketchbook-journal as add-on to my sketches and typed text.

There's a guy here in town, also on Flickr, who has been copying my work for some time now. I don't mean stealing my photos. He practically recreates them. Same subject from the same vantage point at the same time of day. When he's not emulating me, his default creative level seems to be hyper-saturated sunsets and retaking his own photographs over and over.<BR/><BR/>On the 7th, I uploaded a few Poladroids. Five days later, <I>he</I> uploads a Poladroid. Of a sunset.

A Polaroid factory that had been inactive for a year or two was bought by a entrepreneur in Enschede who is determined to produce Polaroid cartridges for the niche market of aficonados, artists and photographers who chreish the unique qualities of the Polaroid image.

If you aren't one to dead-center your subjects, though, you may have to first fiddle with cropping to get a good Poladroid result.Olivanderhttp://sevenels.net/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3655212170262434611.post-84285253435453658222009-03-07T20:14:00.000-08:002009-03-07T20:14:00.000-08:00It may not be perfect, but that fauxlariod site is fun.<BR/><BR/>A Moleskine appointment book beats two Rhodias any day.

Hope to see you around in the comments. I was just rummaging through Rhodia notebooks earlier today but ended up getting a dented Moleskine appointment book for 15% off. Might be time for another post about notebooks...Strikethruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07797111328778577303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3655212170262434611.post-89177347860612098832009-03-06T20:21:00.000-08:002009-03-06T20:21:00.000-08:00Came across your site whilst searching for moleskine/rhodia info... love it love it love it! ;) Looking forward to following your posts in the future.

There are also Photoshop actions and filters to emulate Polaroids, but this looks better than any I've seen. (Mind you, I haven't played with it myself; I'm just looking through the Flickr gallery.)<BR/><BR/>This might be one of those format emulators that don't bug me. After all, with Polaroid film soon to be extinct, these emulators may be the only way to achieve that look.Olivanderhttp://sevenels.net/blognoreply@blogger.com
