SpinArt

I may be speaking for the both of us, but Vince and I have an obsession with these kinds of artsy apps. Both Colorsplash and Pano tickled our fancies in ways we can't even begin to describe. SpinArt really should be no exception. It does exactly what the title suggests. It is a replica of the cheesy spinart that you can do at art fairs and the county festival. The fun part is the no mess and the fact this it uses the iPhone's intuitive multi-touch interface to work. Start with a blank canvas, give it a spin with your finger, then select your colors and drag your finger across the screen. Before you know it, you're creating works of art that someone beside just your mother would be willing to hang on their refrigerator. The sheer fact that this app isn't glitchy or laggy makes it worth $.99, but then you realize you're having fun and it becomes one of your favorite apps. It's a great way to spend a couple of minutes. I've been playing with it for 30 minutes, and show no signs of really getting that bored with it. I would like to see the option to upload your own photos from your phone into the canvas, but other than that, it's a really fun app that you should download immediately if you enjoy these kinds of apps.

Crazy Letters

Crazy Letters is a fun photo editing app that allows you to overlay letters that look like they are cut from magazines onto photos. Despite having a ransom letter feel to each of your pictures, this app is actually really fun to use. The UI is fairly simple and straightforward. You type something, it appears as cut up letters, if you don't like the current style just shake the phone to get new ones.

Once you have selected a style you want, you can pinch the letters to adjust their size and se your finger to drag them into place. Its pretty simple.

At $.99, this is a fun little app to have that can make your pictures just slightly more interesting.
