Considering they where like three meters from her door or so, this was not exactly far fetched.

The first photographs took many hours, so it took a while to make the technology more efficient before one actually would be able to photograph people.

--- End quote ---
Now? Of the cast, you'd think she'd have been the first adopter. Well, second after Pintsize (you know what they say about the first adopter).
--- End quote ---
Huh? How's that?
Hey, wait a minute, in her twitter account picture she's standing in Marten's apartment! So the latest events are actually a preview?

Yes, yes, but why would Cosette have been the first (or second) adopter of twitter?
--- End quote ---
Oh, Cosette. I thought we were talking about Marigold, though she's been on twitter for a while, and the "Huh? How's that?" was in response to the comment about Pintsize. And I didn't look at the twitter profile pictures before commenting.

You could have just added this to your post directly above it, you know. And not completely missed the point. Of course I didn't mean the testing phases, when the most mobile thing photographed was a window. But once it was on the cusp of commercial viability and the shutter time was less than five decades, the first use was by rich dudes to take pictures of naked ladies (and don't take that literally either, I mean the first subject matter to take up a substantial percentage of the shots taken).
Binary:
I think snubnose has kinda missed the point of my post, too. I never said or even implied that Marigold going back to change the bra was far-fetched - merely that it never occurred to me, and if it had then I wouldn't have made unwarranted plot suggestions.

You mean this strip?
