Update: Rollip is no longer free!
Nowadays most people use digital camera, or their cameras on their cell phones (I bet my cell phone owns yours – ha ha), when it comes to photography. So does anyone still remember those huge Polaroid cameras way back when? You know the ones that developed the picture as soon as you snapped it? Yes… they weren’t the best of quality but they were instant and so coooooool! I remember always wanting to use one as a child (hey… no comment on my age!). Never did get the chance though sadly enough. If you do miss the Polaroids, I can’t promise you a Polaroid camera to use, but I can promise you the next best thing: Rollip.

When the image is done being Polaroid-ed, you are shown a preview of your image and are given the options to download it or share it:
You can Polaroid your own images from the following link:
