Turn a Photo Into Art With Pixlr Express for iPad

September 3, 2014 by admin

Pixlr Express Plus for iPad is a free app that provides intuitive tools for cropping your pictures, fixing the light balance, removing red eyes, and changing the contrast of your pictures. Pixlr Express Plus also provides some Instagram-like filters that you can apply to your images. In the video below the community manager for Pixlr demonstrates how to take an ordinary picture and turn into a work of art on your iPad. The video is about six minutes long, but you can probably skip the first minute and still get everything you need to know.

I recommend Pixlr’s tools because they don’t require you to create an account. And if your school uses a mix of iPads, laptops, and Android devices Pixlr has something for everyone.

Frame Artist – An App for Editing Images and Creating Collages

September 10, 2013 by admin

Screen Shot 2013-09-10 at 9.14.30 AM Frame Artist is a nice iPad app (free and paid versions are available) for editing images and creating collages. The app provides two dozen templates. If the pre-made templates don’t suit your style you can create your own. Whether you use one of the stock templates or you create your own, you can add stickers, fonts, and filters to your images.

When I opened Frame Artist the magazine template caught my eye. I used the template to quickly assemble a magazine cover that features my dogs. Students could use the magazine template to create a cover for a document or to create an opening slide for a presentation.

Frame Artist allows you to import pictures from your camera roll, Facebook, Tumblr, Flickr, and Instagram. You can also search the web for pictures through the Frame Artist app. When your collage is complete you can share it to all of the popular social networks, email it, or save it to your camera roll. The free version of Frame Artist allows you to save five projects. There is not a limit to how many projects you can save if you purchase the pro version of Frame Artist.

June 18, 2013 by admin

Screen Shot 2013-06-18 at 10.55.17 AMEdit & Share is a free iPad and iPhone app whose name tells you exactly what it’s used for. Edit & Share is a free app for creating and editing collections of images. By using the app you can crop images, alter the colors of images, and add text notes to your images. You can edit and notate images on an individual basis or create collections of images with notes. Your images can be shared individually or as a group. To share you can Tweet, Facebook, or email your collections.

Edit & Share could be a good app for students to use to quickly take notes about interesting things that they find on a field trip. Students could also use Edit & Share to create simple portfolios highlighting examples of their best work.
