Vignette for Android

| 3 Kommentare

Being a professional image editor, i know how to process and alter images nearly any way you can imagine. Replace one model’s head with another? Making the skin look healthy, fresh and tan? Removing red eyes? Sharpen, crop, brighten? No problem.

Being a Hobby/Semi-professional-ish photographer, i like the randomness sometimes. Especially taking photos of the cats is a total matter of luck. When relaxing on the couch or playing with them, i usually don’t bring the Canon DSLR. I love to take shots with my cell, it’s fast, it’s spontaneus and sadly,  it doesn’t produce nice pictures.
While I was laying on the couch the last week, sick and bored, i started searching for some nice apps to enhance my cell phone’s camera functions.

I found lots of suggestions, downloaded some free apps and some free trial apps. The one i liked most was Vignette. I don’t think it’s necessary describing or reviewing  it again in detail – if you are searching for a nice Android Photo App, take a look at these links: You can find a list of features here, a great flickr photo group here. Simply search for “Vignette” at the Android Market. There’s a free version, if you want to use the full resolution of your camera, you need to download the full version for 2,49 £

Edit: One thing I totally forgot about is: You can set your volume buttons as the shutter release button, and I think that’s great for the self-shots some people like to do, no need to use a touch button on your display or the optical trackpoint (i’m talking HTC Desire here ;D). But please stop making that duckface.

And here are some of my favourite experiments with Vignette:

Oh and since english isn’t my native language, i hope the text above wasn’t too awful to read and i didn’t make too many mistakes -.-  I just felt like writing a little piece in english.

flattr this!

  1. Love the new header pic, but somehow the layout is phu**ed on Firefox and IE. Can’t read the first lines of the article.

  2. I was looking for an app to make nicer pictures! Thanks for posting this, I’ll have a look at this one!
    (And your english is much better than what I see every day, so don’t worry about it!)

    Somehow the beginning of the text is missing, though.

  3. Thank you for your comments – you probably didn’t notice that i wrote this at the end of 2010 Wink – anyways, Vignette is still a good app, i guess. I started using instagram since I got my iPhone for my birthday this year, so I don’t use Vignette anymore (and I think it’s not available for iPhone, too.)

    About the blog Layout: Some of the older posts still need some additional settings for the theme to work, that’s what I did last night. Somehow the feed for some posts was being triggered, so they showed up in my facebook stream ;D
