Just stumbled upon a person complaining about film being made with gelatin (because it is an animal by-product made from the leftover bones), and how that person would buy a polyester based film instead.
I have a scoop: they are all made with gelatin. That’s for the emulsion. As for the polyester, it is for the base, which is the non reactive part, the one that hold the emulsion.
Enjoy.
That’s what we call a luxury item. And it does not make your photography better.

hey Tumblr, what’s the deal with comments? It seems that the checkbox appear and disappear. What the deuce?
Slowpoke tries to make developers care
Shall I really treat Tumblr as the new LiveJournal?
It seems to even have gained comments. Humor me.
The recent shutdown of Gush reiterates all the reasons we started The OpenPhoto Project. For those unaware of Gush they were a photo service that collected all of your photos from your computer, Facebook and Flickr (source). They’re similar to recent services like Everpix and Snapjoy.
In an email to users, Gush thanks them for testing the service but states they are shutting it down immediately and deleting the photos this week.
We’re sorry. Getting handed a pink slip is always hard and especially hard if you loved your work. It’s no secret that Flickr is a labor of love for many of the folks working on it.
It’s also true that every closed door leads to unique opportunities so I’d like to extend an invitation to help us…
