yes, there is an issue with ie to be solved soon… on the way for that. in the meantime you can browse it with firefox or chrome.
thank you.
thank you for that information, irreversible_kev! i already heard about it. i will go for it
that Pola is great!!! ;D
The Images are saved without the shadow I can see above here 
Very nice!
The built in voice says “pola created”, sweet
It’s pretty funny on Microsoft Sam
that’s sam speaking, yes! ;D
very nice Pola! 
the new version Pola 3.0a r3 is already released. it runs on mac / windows / linux.
it has much more new features and enhancements. to discover. enjoy
Looks really sleek and cool but for some reason I cant drag my pictures onto the Pola, not sure what I am doing wrong.
Ouups… :o
on what operating systems are you running it? and what version is your Pola?
the only matter i found some time ago with DnD was on linux, but from Pola 3.0a r1 it was corrected. i tested it myself on ubuntu. but, there may be an exception… should see i your answer on platform and version and review this.
I am on Windows 7 64 bit with Pola 3.0a r3. I even ran it as administrator but still nothing. Hope we can figure this out because this really awesome!
Oh gosh… windows 7… haven’t tried it there yet, but your feedback is enough for me to check what’s happening. i have tested Pola in windows xp and vista, but didn’t run it on 7, and nobody reported this issue before.
Pola is fully java 1.4 compliance, and should run well on new versions. i guess this is not the point, but, what’s your exact java runtime version?
i will double check this issue.
thank you, very much, Swattkidd7 for your useful feedback
No problem :), My Java version is 1.6.0_20. Everything seems to run properly except the actual dragging and dropping. As I drag the image over the Polaroid I get the little circle with a slash icon as my mouse pointer (indicating that it cant be done).
delayed but secure ;D
this new version Pola 3.0a r5 provides a new function in action-menu for manually loading images in case drag-n-drop fails

A tasty Chocolate at the fresh Blue sea… this is Pola 3.0a r7
