I would just get a pack of Polaroids - the unexpected effects you get are very pretty and really unique. sure it's not cheap but so isn't printer ink and high-gloss photo paper. I just hope polaroid is not gonna be the next victim of the digital age. For my part - I'll stick to the real deal. i agree with emre – it only simulates the borders of a polaroid, and even those have a unique pattern that’s really hard to copy with a computer…
