Thread: Instagram?

  1. 12-08-2011 05:58 AM #1
    Just wondering if anybody on vortex uses instagram?
    I just downloaded the iPhone app, and I'm hooked!

    It's a bit gimmicky, but its a cool app.

    If anybody wants to follow, my username is quellegueule.
    Feel free to share yours!

    Word.

    My IG name is palakaman.

    I use it. Lots of fun. Best part is it's world wide. I'm following people from Europe, Australia, and Japan to name a few.

    Follow and be followed.

    It is cool because you can edit and post right from your phone so it makes it more accessable to the newb.

    I guess the best way to describe it would be twitter meets flickr.

    You can snap a picture, choose a filter (or not), and the image is shared with your friends.
    There's even the option to post directly to twitter, fb, flickr, etc...
    Your friends can like and post comments.

    It's pretty cool for the photo enthusiast.
    The camera on the iPhone 4S is pretty sweet too, so pictures turn out pretty good.

    The girlfriend uses, and loves, Instagram.

    I currently have the original iPhone (one that my cousin got when it first launched) and once I upgrade the OS on my Macbook I will update iTunes and jailbreak the girlfriends iPhone 3G and download this app.

    @andydel on instagram but I prefer Pixlromatic and it's filters for in camera editing/customizing. Pixlr doesn't have the built in sharing features of insta but has it beat in the filter department imo.

    Has anyone tried out Filmlab yet? It's a GREAT concept but I can't get it to run right on my 4 with iOS 5.1. It's workflow is pretty clunky too, which is a shame

    I honestly get more enjoyment out of taking goofy pics with my phone than I do with the dslr lately

    I actually attribute Instagram with getting me to stop thinking of the camera in my 3G as a crappy lo-res camera – and therefore never using it – to thinking of it is a different (not better or worse) way of documenting things.

    The latest Pixlromatic update switched up the color filters and took away a couple of my favorite filters

    I might start using instagram more now
