Create Instant Polaroid Effects On Your Photos

A couple of days ago, I received a message from Maurice Sikkink, Lead Developer at Rollip.com, who introduced me to the website where we can create instant Polaroid effects on our digital photos. When I was in school, one of the items that was on my wish list was a Polaroid camera but I never got around to buying one. It looks like with Rollip.com, I don’t need a real Polaroid camera anymore!

I tested out what Rollip.com has to offer and used this photo of Kevin Cheng to test. I am suffering from Kevin Cheng fever now and have been watching his old TVB dramas consecutively from Hard Fate to The Seventh Day to Under The Canopy of Love and am currently watching Life Art so it’s no wonder that I have his photo on my desktop. LOL

I have enclosed the two Before & After photos of Kevin Cheng so you can compare the original photo with the one with Polaroid effect. According to Maurice, images that users upload to Rollip.com are not stored on their servers so if you would like to share your image, use the link provided or just save the image to your computer and upload it elsewhere, like I have done.

One thing with Rollip.com is that it’s quite addictive but don’t worry, it’s free to use so you can play with as many images and the various Polaroid effects as many times as you wish!
