A picture frame that plays a song. Slide in an ordinary printed photo, then paste any link - a song, a video, a shared album - and the frame builds a standard phone-camera QR code under the picture beside your own two lines of text. The default front is a now-playing bar whose sound wave is generated from your link, so every frame is different; classic, decorated and minimal fronts are there too, with heart, star, music, flower, paw or ring emblems. The front prints face-down against the build plate, so it comes out flat and glossy and all the dark detail sits in the first 0.6 mm: one filament change at one height, which an AMS handles by itself and a single-colour printer handles with one pause. A snap-in back panel holds the photo and can be opened again to change it, and it can carry a raised message for the person you are giving it to. Stand it on the included base, hang it on two screws, or fit it with fridge magnets.
The complete https:// address the QR code opens. Any link works: a Spotify or Apple Music song, a YouTube or Vimeo video, a shared photo album, a wedding page. To get a song link on the Spotify mobile app, open the song, tap the three dots, choose Share, then Copy link. Shorter addresses print larger, easier-to-scan squares, so if your link is very long, shorten it first. The finished code is scanned with the phone's normal Camera app.
The main line under the photo, in the same colour as the QR code. Leave any of the three text lines empty to drop it from the layout.
The second line, for a date, two names, or a short dedication. Long lines are shrunk to fit and rejected if they would print smaller than 3.5 mm.
A small line printed directly under the QR code to tell people what to do with it.
The size of the printed photo you will slide in. Standard photo-lab sizes; choose Custom to type your own. The frame hides 3 mm of each edge, so order the photo at its full nominal size.
Whether the photo stands tall or lies wide. Ignored for the square size and for a custom size.
Width of your photo, used only when the photo size is Custom.
Height of your photo, used only when the photo size is Custom.
The look of the front. Now playing adds a sound-wave bar and a progress line under your text, like a music player. Classic frames the picture with a double inlaid border. Decorated adds a rule and larger corner emblems. Minimal keeps a single thin border and one line of type.
A pair of mirrored emblems across the top of the frame, for the occasion you are giving it for.
How wide the border around the picture is. Wall hanging and fridge magnets need at least 14 mm, because the hardware sits inside the frame's own side rails.
The treatment of the four outer corners.
Cuts a 45 degree bevel around the picture opening, the way a card mount in a bought frame does. Adds depth to the front without any extra printing time.
The typeface for every line of text, including the message on the back.
How deep the second colour sits in the face. This is also the height of the single filament change: 0.6 mm is three layers at 0.2 mm. Deeper hides the join better on a printer with slight colour bleed.
How the frame is displayed. The stand is a separate slotted base the frame drops into. Wall hanging cuts two keyholes into the frame's own side rails, so it hangs on two screws and sits level. Magnets are four pockets for 8 x 2 mm discs, glued in. Flat back leaves the rear plain.
The thickness of your photo paper, so the back panel closes on it without pinching. Ordinary photo-lab prints are about 0.25 mm; thick card is nearer 1 mm.
An optional dedication raised on the outside of the back panel, where the giver signs it. Costs nothing to print and needs no second colour.
