HOW TO USE THE PHOTO BOOTH
====================
To use the photo booth simply sit on it, your avatar will be positioned in the middle of the booth in the currently selected pose.
ANIMATIONS/POSES
Use the arrow keys to move through the animations inside the booth. If you wish to add your own poses/animations to the booth perform the following steps...
a) Right click on the booth and select edit
b) In the window that pops up select the contents tab
c) Drag the animation/pose you wish to use from your inventory into the photo booth.
d) Close the edit window and use the booth, the animation will now appear somewhere in the list of animations you can scroll through.
LIGHTS
there are 4 built in lights from the corners of the booth. The controls to toggle each of these lights on/off are on the far left of the booth when you are facing it.
SCREEN
If you wish to have a white screen behind your avatar click the screen button on the booths front panel. The white screen can be toggled on/off. You do not have to keep this screen white, you can change color using the standard Secondlife editing controls, or texture it if you wish. Be careful if you texture the booth not to texture the whole lot! I recommend making a backup of the photo booth before you do any re-textureing just to be safe.
GLOW
built in is a glow effect that will make the white screen glow creating a soft haze around your avatar. To turn this on and off, click the glow button on the photo booth front panel. The + and - signs next to the glow button can be used to adjust the glow intensity.
CAMERA
It is possible to make the photo booth remember a camera position and direction. This is useful if you want to have a series of consistent camera angle shots. Click the Camera HUD button on the photo booth to get a copy of the camera HUD and attach it.
When you are using the photo booth find an angle that you like, and click on the 'Fix Cam' button on the camera HUD. The current camera position will now be fixed. If you pan your camera around to another view you can quickly revert to the remembered position by pressing the escape key on your keyboard.
If you wish to reset the camera to its default state click the 'Reset Cam' button on the Camera HUD.
The camera fix and reset commands can also be triggered in chat with the commands '/1fixcam' and '/1resetcam'
