Eyepawed
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: eye pod
Sentence: Electronic devices have been a God-send for shy and somewhat bizarre people like Julie. When she gets a crush on some hot guy in her school (like a new one each week...way out of her league), she follows him around and secretly takes pics of him for her to daydream over. These poor guys don't even know they are being eyepawed by a stalker like Julie. Doesn't she watch CSI or Criminal Minds? This is how they eventually takedown people like her when the restraining order is enforced.
Etymology: Eye Pawed (to touch/drool over with your eyes) & Wordplay on iPod (portable media device range of products produced by Apple Inc, including ones with camera connectors)
Kleptograph
Created by: splendiction

To get a good frame of the body part you want, use an expensive digital camera, preferrably one with an image stabilizer. Practise! practise! will allow for stealth in sneaking your kleptographs.
Etymology: kleptograph n. or v. is from the words kleptomania (urge to take) and photograph.
