Polaroid GENERATOR V2

DOWNLOAD THE ALL NEW POLAROID GENERATOR 3

EDIT 11/10/11: Minor Bugfixes

PLEASE DONATE SECURELY WITH PAYPAL

You like it virtual, you like it fake, you like it cheap, you can't afford real film, you don't accept those incredibly high prices for expired film, you just bought a Polaroid camera at ebay and realised afterwards, there's actually no more film available, you are about 17 years old and on that 80's retro trip, you have a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS or higher on your fancy laptop and want to max it out?
Then you really should try this out!

HOW TO:
Download the ZIP, extract the ATN file that's inside to a directory of your choice, open Photoshop, load the action, choose an action, press play, wait, behold!

Wait a second - actions, photoshop, what's this all about?! READ THIS ARTICLE

Wait another second - you are too lazy to read?! Watch this cool video tutorial by !TheGreatGeekyMe on his blog DANCINGPANCAKES.COM


Is anyone out there who knows how to write scripts for PS? I'd like to add more comfort and features that can hardly done with a fully automatic action.

Changes & approvements between V1.1 and V2:
only one action for wide and high format photos. Doesn't work properly with cropped formats like 1000x3000px though.
decreased runtime by deleting a lot of steps that were unneccessary
added the film type 600 b/w Example
added four Emulsion Void actions Example
improved the look of all types
reduced value of grain/noise
grain is additive and subtractive now (original contrast is maintained)
removed all stops caused by confirmations on several points in the script
implemented the finisher effects streaks and bevel to the main actions
added snapshots at some points in the script that allow you to roll back to previous states of the script.
The frame looks a bit more realistic imho. It has a light dirt texture and a thin void.
The different aspect ratios of Type Zero and 600 are now given

SOME WONDERFUL SAMPLES
