Description
Print Club (known in Japanese as Purinto Kurabu, or Puri Kura for short) is a machine that lets you design and print out stickers with photos of your face on them. To use Print Club, you stand in front of the machine, draw a curtain behind you, and press a button to get your picture taken. Then you can start customizing your picture. You get to choose a background pattern that you like, you can use the pen tool to draw and paint on the picture, and you can also choose some lovely default patterns to paste on anywhere you like on the picture. You can play with yourself, friends and family, as long as the screen can fit!
ITP Print Club has all the features above, and even more! Not only because it is free, but also it is just a program so you can basically download it onto any computer. All you need is a web cam and a computer, then you can enjoy the fun anytime and anywhere you like. This program will be connected to a database, so after you finish editing your image you can save your image into the database, you can also choose to send the finished image to your email account. This way you get to keep the original file of your design and you can do whatever you like to it. You can easily put it on your flicker or send it to friends without having to print them out and scan them. It is a fun project that will create an enjoyable experience.
