Using Photo Booth For Something Useful (Gasp!)

For those of you with a Mac and children in the house, you must have thousands of photos of them and their friends looking very silly using Photo Booth. For those without a Mac, Photo Booth is a photo taking program that is easy to use and has LOTS of special effects. Are these the photos to send to grandma? Your Christmas card? School yearbook? No. Here’s an easy present you can make for yourself, your kids’ friends, or even family members with a good sense of humor.

1A.Import the first 25 Photo Booth photos that make you laugh into iPhoto. 1B.Tell your child to import the best photos from Photo Booth into iPhoto and delete the rest. (This may take awhile. My son had 1345 photos to look through. Mostly of him.) Then in iPhoto, narrow it down to twenty-five of the best of the best. 2. Using iPhoto, Powerpoint or however you print images, make them into a sheet. 3. Print twice for twenty-five pairs of weird photos. 4. Cut them into squares (helps to buy a $10 paper cutting tool.) 5. Enjoy your Memory game with ridiculous photos! Give a set away! 6. Accept compliments on your original and funny present.
