Ponoko's Photomake: If You Can Draw It, They Can Make It

"The Photomake feature allows users to turn a digital photograph or scanned line drawing into a real life object. Rather than using graphics software, the process allows anyone with a camera (or scanner), an idea, and a little creativity to create objects that are perfectly suited to their taste and needs.

All you need to get started with Photomake is a felt tip pen and piece of paper. Just draw what you want to make, take a photograph of it, upload this digital photo to the Ponoko website (no login required), get an instant online price to turn your drawing into the real thing, then click to make. Your product will be delivered to your door in days. Fans of photo and graphics editing software like Photoshop and GIMP can also use these programs to create images of their designs."
