That’s right.
Knock those socks right off your feet.
Your feet will be full of nakedness. Get ready for it.
FotoRus Photo App
It freakin’ rocks out loud.
It’s my photo app bestie.
SMILE
Here’s the best part :It’s FREE
The birds are chirpin’. The songs are singing. Singing to the tune of free free free.
FotoRus is my photo app dope.
And Instagram is my dealer.
That’s my wee trade secret.
Pay attention. That’s one smoking hawt great tip.
Here is how it works :
Take a shitty photo. {I excel at that one}. I usually need to hold my phone in one hand, and chase squirrels out of the tree house simultaneously. Seriously. My life is that whacked. My treehouse squirrels are stealing my sanity. One pine cone at a time. More about those buggers squirrels later.
Create photo app miracles in photo apps like FotoRus, Cartoonatic and Hipstamatic.
Share on instagram. P.S. Instagram is the best thing since sliced bread.
It’s my dope. Thank Gawd it’s legalized dope.
Hipstamatic photo with Instagram filter . EASY. The photo is easy, not the blogger. LOL.
INSTAGRAM is d’bomb dot com.
You better go and follow me on it. Or I will arm wrestle you to the ground.
Great, unique photos are essential if you are a blogger. Hellloooooo.
Otherwise, you will hear crickets. What’s that ??!!
SILENCE.
You can hear a pin drop.
AKA a blogger nightmare.
Ready to take the photo app plunge? This is how you do it.
Go to iTunes and download the app.
Btw’ssss….
Don’t do it, unless you are totally ready to make all your photos look dead sexy.
FotoRus Photo App with FISH EYE filter
Good times ahead.
Here are some samples of what the app can do :
PIC-in-PIC FILTER
PAINT & LIGHTING FILTER
FotoRus with PAINT filter
BALI fishing boat – PAINT filter
That’s right. I painted that boat photo.
NOT.
PAINT FILTER to the rescue. Coolio, huh?
In my spare time, I painted these too….
Hotel Lafayette with PAINT effect
Oh, I have such a way with a paint brush.
I lie.
Art Deco Decor with PAINT effect
So what do you think of it? Knock your socks off ? Guess what else it does?
A COLLAGE !
Helloooooooo….Come to Mama ….
BEACH LIFE
As a blogger and instagrammer, I was LOST on how to make a collage.
The easy way.
I like easy.
Cheap and easy.
Shut it.
How about free and easy? That sounds nice, doesn’t it? FREE and EASY.
Ahhhh, music to our ears.
PARIS
You can create collages in all different shapes and sizes. Just like our butts. Only better.
KISS ME. Kiss me NOW.
Note: these photos were no hot hell when I started. Just basic pics. Then I threw them into the app and BAMM…my socks blew off. My feet were naked. *bliss*
You can do crazy stuff like this too :
FACEBOOK with LIGHTING effect
And you can go hog wild with colour too….
YUM. COLOUR. Colour it puuuurty :
LIGHTING filter
FotoRus PHOTO APP with LOMO-C filter
FotoRus is like a photography superman. Cape and all. To your photo rescue.
I just wish it had muscles like superman.
Maybe even fly over skyscrapers wearing spandex.
Sexy hair, a naughty phone booth, and the ripping off of the shirt in a moments notice….
How hawt is that?
Who could ask for more ?
OMG–this is so cool. But….now I have to anti up for an i-phone first.
I’m a sucker for another good photo app. Downloading!
And yeah… I just followed you on Instagram. Hells yes.
Ahhh Natalie ~
We have some SUCKER loves in common…instagram, photo apps and fonts! P.s. I love fonts on your site, the downloadables and your tech savvy. *Jealous*. Can you come to my treehouse and we play on our laptops for days?! Oh the fun that would be! Lynne xx
Love all the crazy and beautiful effects. I am not on Instagram but I do have an iPhone so will check this out for sure. I will also give picmonkey a whirl as I mainly shoot food with a digital slr camera. Might be pretty whack to have painted food! Thanks for all the tips. You must have had a lot of fun sorting out this post
Good point Kellie
Painted food would look a little funky. Although…on instagram I recently did a “painted tea cup” and it was a stunner. You may like that sort of yumminess.
The instagram app on the iPhone is a SNAP to use. So addictive. There are so many great food shots in instagram it is mind blowing. Pinvolve in FB now has a tab where you can PIN your photos from instagram too. Great for bloggers !
Cheers my friend.
Great stuff…. buuut… I don’t have a smart phone et al. Is there an app like this for the computer? Would love it for the photo books I make for my grandkids. Your photos are terrific and fun!!!
Yes Bobbie,
There is ! It is called PicMonkey. I ADORE that one too… If I was a monkey, I would marry it.
Here is the link : http://www.picmonkey.com
Have fun !!!
You will LOVE it !
Lynne xx
I should have read this before commenting! So I don’t need an iphone! Thank you!!
I still think you should anti up for an iPhone LOL…because they are oooooh so much fun. I have an unhealthy love of a phone, don’t I? LOL. Have fun with the app! It is seriously AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME.
xx
Instagram only loves those with an I-phone – I can’t get it on my ordinary phone. Either I need an IT guy strapped to my hip or gonna have to get a new smarter phone to play with.
Darn Mary Kay,
I didn’t know that. YIKES…. well… an iPhone is LOVELY!! The app also works on the iPad but that may look kinda big when you hold it up to your ear for a phone call. LOL.
LOL – so true (remember when the “kids” used to walk around with the boom box on their shoulders – that would be me with the iPad) but alas I don’t have an iPad
– We are apparently not apple friendly at my house. (It is my brother-in-law’s fault – I think he is allergic). I may have to buck the system…
Instragram should now work on Android phones as well…in case you have one of those
Yes it does – but my Android is OLD – maybe when I get a new I can be cool like everyone else.
Thanks for asking all the questions I wanted to ask but not even iphone savvy enough to word them right. LOL Even my camera is obsolete. I tried to download the program that came with it onto my laptop as soon as I got it and found it was a dead deal when Windows 98 died. It takes great pics but I have to take the card to the photo place for developing. Bummer! I know, buy a new camera, right? It’s just hard for an old over the hill hippie to throw away a perfectly good camera. or phone………
You crack me up Gayla
Wooohooo hippie gal.
I’m lovin’ the hippie in you. If you have crap photos on your laptop/computer – have no fear….just google http://www.picmonkey.com and upload a picture into it. You don’t need an iphone and you will be SHOCKED how easy it is to use. There is nothing to download, nothing to buy, you just upload a photo into it and have some fun. Dead easy. Dead sexy. Just like FotoRus but without a cell phone
