Schadenfreude Snapomatic Camera

A camera to document your travels at a Jet Setter at Collabor88.  I love to travel- but my version involves less partying, more seeing all the sites and walking my feet off, and of course, taking a lightweight camera with me to take pictures (a friend I travel with sometimes loves her DSLR, but even she ends up just taking her phone now some days because it's too heavy to lug all across the country).

This camera is modeled after one of those new instant cameras that took the place of polaroids, except with new fangled printing technology, and the ability to also keep a digital copy (there's a USB port to download)- in a retro vintage style.  Your choice of colours and neutrals for the wrap around leather body, with silver, gold, or rose gold metal options.  The photo frame has 4 options- solid black or white, and also black or white with pink hearts.



Unfortunately SL doesn't make taking your own screenshots to an object possible, so while you can change the photo it gives out to anyone when you take a picture, it has to be a full perm texture you place into the contents.

It's a good idea to make a copy first, just in case!  If you rez it on the ground, that will make a copy for you and keep one untouched in your inventory- but you can also do it while wearing.

Edit it in Build (right click, and choose "Edit" in the menu), then click on the Contents tab in the menu that pops up, and drag your texture(s) into there.  Also because SL is a bit clunky...whoever gets the photo object from the camera needs to wear it right after getting it, near the camera- so it will change to your picture instead of the default.


At Collabor88, until March 6!
