Tap the orange refresh button to get a new variation, shake to cancel. Share as many picture as you can, they’ll never look like each others! – transform your pictures into slides or through-the-viewfinder experiments - three sets of dynamic filters - randomize the filters components : never get the same picture twice - share on Facebook, Twitter, Picasa, save in high resolution, send to Instagram or to another app – set exports destinations dimensions independently - all…
Gray’s Anatomy – ‘Time for a (big) change?’ – By Richard Gray
My eyes have been struggling with the small iPhone screen. After a long scribble session with PS Touch or some intricate masking on Photo Wizard, I find myself slightly bleary-eyed. I think I need more real estate on my screen. And I admit, with my iphone contract coming up for renewal, I have been looking at the “larger” options.

Some of the approaches have been quite discrete. I know how these sort of…
A Picture’s Worth – With Michelle Robinson

We also ask these incredible artists to explain their emotions and how the image projects those feelings. We have published a few A Picture’s Worth articles recently, if you have missed those – please go here. In this A Picture’s Worth today Michelle Robinson discusses creating a cohesive set of…

Yesterday we announced that Yahoo! had purchased the developers of Kitcam and PhotoForge2 apps in order to strengthen photo editing and filter options for Flickr.

Yahoo! Picks Up KitCam and PhotoForge To Strengthen Flickr
KitCam and PhotoForge have long been favorite apps of many iPhone photographers – sadly these apps are no longer available or at least currently available in the Apple App store as Yahoo! has acquired the developers – GhostBird. Ever since Flickr upgraded their photo sharing site they’ve been on the look out to offer more, they were seriously lacking in the photo editing space and by picking up PhotoForge they can fill that niche very nicely. KitCam too is/was a fabulous filter app, so it looks like the entire GhostBird portfolio and their team have been gobbled up. We have requested additional information and at soon as that’s forthcoming we’ll…
