App Aims: Add Life And Depth To The Dull, Everyday iPhone Pictures

Reviewer’s Comments
Many people feel like their photographs should tell a story and for many that is true. However, for the people that are left feeling like their photos needs a little help or zing, 101+PhotoEffects is the ticket.

You can do everything from cropping a photo to rotating and flipping the image. Play with the photos taken with the iPhone or import them from iTunes. Add butterflies to that photo of your toddler playing in the yard or make an image look like it came from a movie reel.

It’s as simple as tapping the screen when you find the perfect effect or add one effect and then layer another on top of the photo with just two taps of the finger. And if you decide you don't like an effect on a photo, it’s just as simple to remove it. If you’re a novice at adding effects to photos, the detailed instructions make it easy as pie. Once you’ve achieved the effect on an image you want, save the new image to the iPhone’s Photo Album in hi-res quality, up to 1600x1200 pixels on an iPhone 3GS.

There are currently over 105 photo effects and that number continues to grow with regular, free updates to the app. Some of those filters include:

• Ancient Canvas
• Broken Glass
• Burnt Paper
• Explosion
• False Mirror
• Ghost
• Hue Green
• Mosaic
• Neon Light
• Night Vision
• Old Film Frame
• Old Photo
• Old TV
• Pencil Paint
• Rainbow Palette
• Scary Face
• Stardust Frame
• Steamy Window
• Vintage

The only downside to the app is that there isn’t an effect to compensate for the missing flash on the device but the other features more than make up for it.

So download 101+PhotoEffects and get to work making those boring shots something to be proud of! The creative possibilities are endless and limited only by your imagination.
