What's an 'Old Fogie'?
The tall guy said when he was growing up, whenever someone took a picture with their camera they had to use something called 'FLIMS'. He said these flims were very expensive and it's a good thing that he doesn't have to use flims to take my pictures or otherwise we would not be able to eat.To that I say, thank goodness for not flims!!
Oh, he also said if you want to make your pictures look like 'Polaroids', you can find the software here: http://www.poladroid.net/. It is free. He said if you wanted to make your pictures look like 'Hemorrhoids', you were on your own.

Thank goodness for the digital age! Hey, we still have a Polaroid, kicking around here somewhere! I always liked waiting and shaking the picture, before you peeled off the top!

Yep, digital is the way to go! Thanks for stopping by my blog, Jack! I hope we can be friends.
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
Now WHY would anyone want their pictures to look like a Polaroid? They were always awful! My goal is to take good photos, not to take good photos and then make them look bad LOL
ReplyDelete(Now,a Polaroid picture of a hemorrhoid would be an improvement... )
My grandpa used those cameras and things too!
ReplyDeleteMy mom is happy to have a digital one now!
Kisses and hugs
