Turn Your Instagram Photos Into Wall Art

How To: Turn Your Instagram Photos Into Wall Art
http://mashable.com/2011/11/27/instagram-canvas-prints/

Instagram photos aren’t just for sharing online anymore.

You can turn them into photo books, frame them in four-inch bamboo shadowbox frames, create a collage with them on iPhone cases, turn them into iPad screensavers and now, print them on canvas for your wall.

There are many new applications that help you turn your digital art into physical art. 

In my next post I'll show another service that also does this. Right now, I just use it to share my photos through snail mail.

I hope people don't look at me like that?

This video pokes fun at how overweight people are perceived in public.

What's going on my friends?

I just wanted to shoot out a quick post about what I'm up to.

It's the day before Thanksgiving and that means it's time to gear up for my annual weight purge. This year I'm going to try something different and use an iPhone app called, "The Eatery." So... starting Black Friday, I'll use this app to start a food diary using photos of what I eat. It may will take a while for me to get into the flow (excuses already) :) but I'll get there.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Instagram CEO Suggests Video Sharing Is Coming

Instagram CEO Suggests Video Sharing Is Coming
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2011/11/instagram-ceo-suggests-video-sharing-is-coming

One of the most popular photo-taking apps available today, Instagram, could soon experience a significant transformation. Video sharing will likely become an available option soon, according to Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom who spoke at TechCrunch Disrupt in Beijing according to Business Insider

Personally, I hope the don't do it. 

The simplicity of Instagram is what sets it apart from the others. 

Hopefully they won't complicate things by trying to do too much.

As I have stated many times before, I have discovered some amazing artists that inspire me on Instagram so when I hear significant transformation it concerns me.

Video: BigLens

I have been experimenting with the BigLens iPhone app & so far I'm pretty impressed. If there is one thing that I tend to struggle with... it's over processing my photos with too many different apps & BigLens makes this too easy for me to do.

The acronym K.I.S.S. (Keep-It-Simple-Stupid) comes to mind. But with a little focus, you could create some amazing art using this app.

My Takeaway: This is something that I always do with Camera+ before I upload my edited photos to Instagram.

It's still cool to have another option though.

Thursday, October 20, 2011

Guess what? I'm having issues with the latest iOS 5 update.

I've noticed that my photos appear blurry & some even appear as black boxes on my camera roll. 

I'm going to use FX Photo Studio as my default camera until this issue is resolved.

Image

The photo above was edited with FX Photo Studio...

One of the reasons why I chose this as my go to camera app was the ability to upload photos to both Instagram & Camera+.

Note: You also can save the photos taken (within the app) to the clipboard for further editing. I'll store them there until my iOS 5 issues are fixed.

What about you? Are you having any issues?

iOS 5 issues resolved!!!

Hands-On Preview of Camera and Photos in iOS 5

Hands-On Preview of Camera and Photos in iOS 5
LIFE IN LOFI: IPHONEOGRAPHY | IPHONE PHOTO NEWS, SHOWCASES, APP REVIEWS | OCTOBER 10, 2011
http://lifeinlofi.com/2011/10/10/hands-on-preview-of-camera-and-photos-in-ios-5/

"The Volume Up button now serves as a shutter release when in Camera. It’s very convenient and very responsive. Having a physical shutter release help the iPhone feel more like a camera and helps to reduce missed shots from a missing the software shutter release onscreen."

My Takeaway: I am notoriously known as someone who will whip out my iPhone while waiting in traffic to snap a quick pic. I can't even begin to tell you many great shots I have missed just because my phone was locked. Hopefully with Wednesday's IOS 5 update that will become a thing of the past.

Apple - Introducing iPhone 4S

Apple will pay $200 for your gently used iPhone 4

http://www.macworld.com/article/162663/2011/10/apple_will_pay_your_200_for_your_gently_used_iphone_4.html

"The Next Web points out, Apple’s Reuse and Recycling Program offers the money in the form of an Apple gift card—useful if you want to turn around and buy the 4S. All you have to do is go to the site, answer a few questions about the phone you’re selling, and receive an estimate on the phone’s resale price. After that, ship the phone to Apple, and receive your gift card shortly after. As of Tuesday afternoon, Apple was still willing to pay $180 for a gently used 16GB iPhone 4, and $200 for the 32GB model."

Hmmm... Hopefully this will be a viable option for me. 

If not, I'm pretty cool with updating to the IOS 5 on Oct 12th.
