Polaroid will cease manufacturing of it’s instant film later this month.

Polaroid fans have been campaigning to save it – the film – not the company. Save Polaroid.com is just one of several websites devoted to trying to save the Polaroid film. With it’s white-border the Polaroid instant film has been an important element of popular culture for decades.

At least we will be able to convert our photos into Polaroid-style images using utilities like instantizer.com.
