Frames After the success of making photo frames for my own family (we have four frames in the house). I decided to give away one frame to each of my parents as well. Then I created two "photo albums" that I shared with my siblings on both sides of my family tree. I have two siblings on both sides. So, now my parents gets fun updates in their frames from their children's life. It's so simple just to add a fun snapshot now and then. :)

The build: I bought the "bare bone" screens from Bangood. It's a 10" 2K resolution they say, but I only use it in 1920x1080. I had the idea to use a Raspberry Pi Zero W, but for some reason I never got the picture to show, don't know why. So, I ended up on two Raspberry Pi 3 B+:es instead.

PS: Yes, I kept the plastic foil cover on the front during the build and til the frames where delivered.
