On Ride Photos

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the camera takes all the pictures, then the people at the photo booth quickly check them out as they're being taken. Then I think they approve the appropraite ones and show them on the monitor.

What actually happens is that the cameras automatically take the pictures. Our computers are set on a timer so that they come up on the monitors when the people get off instead of having them come up while they're riding, for obvious reasons. The pictures are all automatically taken and placed on the montiors.

Then it is our job to look at all of them for any inappropriate gestures or whatever we feel shouldn't be displayed. If we see one we can easily press the right buttons on the keyboard or touch the right spot on the screen in MF's case, and take them off.

MF and Snoopy's have computer screens where we can place orders for the pics. They are very nice! I worked at Millennium's for a few hours one day and I loved it! The rest of the booths have keyboards instead of a screen. Most of the keyboards are falling apart and really get on our nerves as do the people, Jeff mentioned.

There really isn't much to Ride Photos.

2002- Raptor Hot Shots
Force Laps: 431 ; Wicked Twists: 68

See my info for mine!

We had to get set up for it a few hills early in order to quit laughing doing this one.

That had to be interesting for the people behind you...

7/27 - Second Largest Ohio Luau in my room @ Breakers (Couldn't Resist...)

We set up something like that on MS. My friend was choking me from behind, and my friend to my right was acting like he was trying to kill me for getting him on the ride. I was grabing my own throat for air. It came out perfectly, but we didn;t buy it for some reason.

On Raptor, I had one where I was holding my legs up by my socks, and was sticking my tongue out at the camera with a funny face. I bought that one.

7/27: Subdivision Cam becomes party cam at the year's hottest Ohio luau!

Owwwwwi your right. Why aren't those slides that popular at regualr amusement parks? They seem like a great kiddie ride. On topic, My friend had an idea to go on the Millennium Force 5 times, each time doing a different movement of the "wave". It was pretty cool when it came out because it was like a flipbook of the wave. lol. But it cost him over $50.

Joey Isch on Coaster Buzz posted this nice ORP.
