A photo frame the family send pictures to
Set up a frame that fills itself with new photographs, and send pictures to somebody else’s.
A digital photo frame sits on the mantel looking like an ordinary frame, and the pictures in it change by themselves because the family put them there from four hundred miles away.
It needs your wireless network, once, on the day it arrives. After that nobody touches it. Your daughter takes a photograph of the children on the beach, presses send, and forty seconds later it is on your mantel.
Key points
- Set a frame up on your own wireless network, once
- Give the family a code so they can send pictures to it
- Send a picture to somebody else’s frame from your phone
- Take a picture off your own frame without anybody being told
What to remember
- Network, name, code. Yours will look a little different, but those same three steps are always there.
- A frame receives. It never sends. That is the whole of its security, and it is why it is restful to own.
- Choose the picture, choose the frames, send. Taking one down is one press, and nobody is told.
Try this
If somebody in your family has a frame, ask them for the code and send them one photograph this week. If nobody has one, it is worth remembering as the present to ask for.
