    AppsApril#28 Flip-O-Matic

    IMG_1568Another interesting app – novel and easy to use! The opening screen of Flip-O-Matic is simple and the options in settings as follows … IMG_1580   The effects are fascinating.  Some examples …
    One has an option to re-use a Flip-O-Matic image.  I repeated this process and produced …
    Once you’re happy with an image, there are a number of options … IMG_1572So, my opinion? Easy to use, novel and cute.  Probably come to it again. Worth exploring! Thanks for coming by. Please leave feedback in the comments box below and sign up for my Blog updates – thanks!!

    IMG_1588If you enjoy joiners and nifty effects, this app might appeal to you! Opening screen (after selecting a photo to play with) … IMG_1583   Provides straight forward choices …IMG_1585   Next one fiddles with the settings from buttons that pop out… IMG_1593   The effects are interesting.  Some examples …
    And sharing looks like this … IMG_1590So, overall, a fun, relatively intuitive app with some novel effects. Worth a play I say! Great to have you here, catch you next time! PS: Remember that if you comment you can subscribe to my Blog and  get updates each time I post!

    AppsApril#23 Panorama

    Yesterday, at the Crows game (which we won!!), I played with the iPhone 5 panorama function and the Panorama (TM) app.

    Here’s the iPhone 5 effort – pretty extensive as you’ll see …

    Here’s Panorama (TM) in action …

    IMG_1334

    Unfortunately you’ll have to click on the icons to see the images – I can’t insert them in their wide glory.

    My verdict?  If you have an iPhone 5 – stick with it – despite it being a dismally wet day, it managed beautifully and provided a wider panorama shot.  If you’re on an earlier iPhone or other smart phone without this function, this app is basic, but does the trick.

    Catch you tomorrow??  Thanks for reading my review!

    AppsApril#20 PhotoStudio

    I have had the PhotoStudio app for a while, recommended to me by a friend I think!  Found out today that it was in fact a good recommendation! IMG_1289 I snapped a number of shots in a new dog park (Ruby enjoyed this excursion too – except that the wait for me to change the flat tyre at the end of it was a little tedious!!) and then came home to play with PhotoStudio.  Basically there were SO many options that playing with it while in shoot mode was a challenge, but for post processing – WOW!! The hints, menu options and opportunities to be creative are helpful and extensive …
    Just a few screen shots of the choices – LOTS to choose from! The option to pick up photos from Camera Roll includes access to all other apps files – so further post processing of photos is possible … IMG_1290 The share options include: Photo Album, Documents, Clipboard, FaceBook, Twitter, Flickr, Email, Instagram, Postcards and print. Seems to me the options are endless!!!!! The +FX, Add Effect button is a ticket to SO, SO, SO many options!!  This one will definitely stay on my screen in its own right – a gem!! Some results of my play …
    Definitely worth checking out!  Hope you picked up my FaceBook posts about it being free fro a short time – even more of a bargain!! Thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoy PhotoStudio – I will now that I have dedicated some exploration time! Catch you tomorrow!!

    AppsApril#19 Instagram Fisheye

    Instagram has added a new member to the family, Instagram Fisheye. Love the effect!
    Crisp, clear, fisheye effects – love it!!! Big challenge for me about Instagram is that the different features are in different apps. Its a pest having to switch from one to another.  Lots to choose from of course – especially if you purchase the additional filters and effects. I brought the LOMO set in the Fisheye App to see if it would also be available in the others – uh huh, purchases required in each app. Also turned out that for $5 all of the fisheye filters, could be turned on, including all future ones. So, that’s it for this review.  Love the app, enjoy Instagram – just those annoyances listed above. Thanks for reading my review and visiting today. Hope to see you again soon!
