    Tutorial – PhotoStation….formerly known as AnyShape – Photo Editor

    2012-12-27 / 6 Comments

    Last month I sat down to write an article describing the latest up dates on an app that I have given some attention in the past, AnyShape. The developers had updated it and included an in-app camera function and social networking sharing capabilities. Nice, but not really anything to write home about. Then…they came out with an update that allowed for more control on placing the selection points around an image. Now…this was a great enhancement! I had my article about all of this practically in the bag….then…then they came out with yet another update and this one also had a couple enhancements of note! And a name change to…

    AnyShape – Photo Editor – Updated

    2012-11-29 / 2 Comments

    We’ve mentioned this app several times here and our Head of Technical Tutorials, David Hayes has written some excellent tutorials based on it too, if you’ve missed those you can read them here. This update now includes increased zooming capabilitiy tenfold to provide more control and allow greater precision when working with images captured by older devices with significantly lower resolution cameras. There’s a bunch of other fixes but perhaps (at least to us) the most important part of this update is an integrated TheAppWhisperer icon within the app to go straight to read our tutorials – excellent update! This is a free update, if you have previously downloaded this…

    Tutorial – AnyShape – Photo Editor – Learning How To Use This Great App

    2012-09-25 / 19 Comments

    Any Shape…now here is an app that I would call a real “sleeper”. I didn’t expect this to be as good and as versatile when I first looked into it for The AppWhisperer…but the more I used it…the more impressed I became!! Any Shape utilizes a bezier selection tool function that allows you to fine tune your cropping masks to a level normal found with desktop editors. This in itself is a great thing…but then it goes a bit further with a great selection of filters that you can apply in-app as well. What I want to do in this tutorial is to give a quick overview on using the…
