I am imagining bemused comments like

"WHere is the Sepia filter"
"How do I crop and rotate"
"Does this come with a selfie stick"
"This memory card is so small"

You will also be able to share/download those photos easily from the same website as well. A personal photo site will be generated per upload.

Yes we made it so that you can also easily print your own. If you choose to place an order for it to be printed, the photos will come in this envelope:

A cool feature. I won't be using it as I imagine I will have hundreds of shots. But it's still nice for those who may not have the know how of getting a screenshot printed. Also, once you factor in the cost of high quality paper, high quality inks, $15 isn't really that bad.

Man I feel old that a package of developed film makes me feel nostalgic!

You get it as part of the story:

Anyone else getting an error when trying to upload the photos?

I am, I played the first iteration of the game from pre-load and the email section was just blank. I quit the game and restarted and now the email field actually says "E-Mail Address" iirc and allows me to input my email.

Only thing is the error happens during upload. Possibly that the server is down or the game isn't communicating to it properly.

Where do I go to upload and print my photos? I read the news but I haven't found the option yet

Most of the photos I took were meant to go to the police as evidence >_<.

That's a really nice idea. I'm almost tempted to do it...

Can somebody link a video to see the actual quality of the printed photos? I can't picture the result. Maybe the game is still too new. If somebody is interested please let me know. I don't need 17 photos but still it would be cool to have a couple shots framed (even better if they look 'vintage').

I just framed my skyrim map in a wonderful frame some days ago. I could use some other nice game related things on the same wall.
