Hi! I have been trying to learn to take pleasing photos with the gameboy camera. It’s quite tricky due to limited resolution and aspect ratio but super fun! Is there anything I can look to do to improve the framing or quality of my shots?

    You are passionate about photography, no? How can the mind of an artist produce such an inflexible condemnation as this? It’s remarkable to me

    There’s a thousand different projects you could make with a toy camera. Googling for one second reveals a small community of enthusiasts for it, with videos and guides to accomplish the very thing you proclaim is impossible (improvement in general). Other people in this very post are brainstorming happily.

    Should nobody ride trains because cars give you more control over your destination?

      I have not “condemnated” anything. I just pointed out that it might not worth trying to get result worth the effort out of a piece of way too limited hartdware. If you can’t find the ironical hybris in an idea like smashing a camera on a glued canvas to get a nice pic out of it then don’t blame me for ""not allowing fun* and give a try to self-reflection instead of self-importantness. Moralist fanatism is the arch enemy of artistic liberty.

        You have in fact condemned the project repeatedly and emphatically. But good, I’m glad you finally feel some need to walk it back.

        Randomly trying to play the victim out of nowhere is laughable, however. Sober up before your next attempt to save face
