Photo Screens
What is it?
These are screens that may be displayed when capturing photos. Not all of the screens are compulsory, but many are an essential part of the photo booth experience.
For example, ready.jpg or ready_overlay.png is your start screen and is required to let guests or operators know how to start the countdown.
Another example is ready_info1.png, this screen could be used to display a Privacy Notice or Terms and Conditions. This is something you would only need to use if required.
