Idea for an upcoming Photo Friday: Photo booths! →[More:]One of those booths where you put in your money and then sit in the booth and it takes four pics of you. (Andy Warhol used to use them regularly.) This would be good for bunnies without cameras, too (though it does require access to a scanner). If we do it, we should probably allow at least a month for everybody to find a photo booth in their area. What do y'all think?

How would one find a photo booth? I don't suppose that there is a website listing them by location, although methinks that would be a swell idea, if I do say so myself.

BTW - Cleveland bunnies, there is one at the Grog Shop.

For anyone in Calgary there is a photo booth in the North Hill Centre Mall next to SAIT.

A good question to which I don't have an answer, yet, but I'll start looking around.

Alaska is completely devoid of snakes, tornadoes, and photo booths.
But I could maybe fake one...

Photo booths are usually in video arcades. I know of a few. I love the idea! Let's do it!

Maybe expand it to include polaroids + scanners? They are in the same novelty photo category for me.

That's a great idea, youngergirl44... Polaroids and/or photo booths!

Here's a list of photo booths around the country (plus some in Canada and a few other countries)- it appears to be the work of one guy, so I'm sure he's missed a lot of them, but it's a good start.

Can we include old photobooth pictures from our teens?

Of course!! :) Photo Friday themes are always open to interpretation... I'd LOVE to see pics from the past included in this one.
