| There's another exciting new feature on the new Home Island -- a Photo Booth! If you land on the island and go right, there's a little camera-shaped kiosk there that you can click on. This is a new feature that lets you create a picture of a Poptropica scene involving a variety of backgrounds, Poptropicans, and props. It's a drag and drop editor that's super easy and fun to use, and when you're done you can download your image! |  |
Rest assured, I will soon create a detailed page on Poptrickia explaining every aspect of the Photo Booth, but here is the main overview of its features:
- Choose from 5 backgrounds
- At least 100 props to put in
- Props and characters can be moved, rotated, flipped, resized, faded, and layered
- Many characters (including your own Poptropican, but not other users... yet), with different
- facial expressions,
- poses,
- handheld items
- 5 pre-made templates (involving the Creators in humorous situations)
- Crop and download your picture when you're done (but sadly you can't load one back in to edit it again).
With these simple tools you can actually make a lot of unique stuff in that Photo Booth, and a whole hour or so can go by on it without noticing that time fly! Make sure to share your creations when they're done.
A quick note on this topic: Many things that were (or would have been) available as cards from the store, like the Costumizer, the Photo Booth, the Bundle Shop, and the tutorial, are now being represented by things on the Home Island instead. I think that's a more appealing way of presenting them as just items in a menu or Store list, isn't it? I think we'll soon see even more things, like the Friends list and the Daily Pop, turn into parts of the Home Island.
Anyway, that's all for this post. Now I'm off to play my new favorite mobile game (well, besides Poptropica), Monument Valley. I promise I'll try to post more often!
