AirPaint v1.0

AirPaint v1.0 | Read more...

Description

This app allows you to paint in air with your iPhone! It uses the built-in accelerometer to estimate how you move the iPhone when painting a stroke in air and the stroke is then displayed on screen.

Accelerometer data alone is not enough information to recreate the stroke, so this application uses physics-based methods to guess how your hand moved based on the acceleration data. As a result, it is fairly easy to paint simple shapes like squares and circles, but more advanced shapes are harder and provides a fun challenge.

If you paint something nice you can use the iPhone's screenshot capability (press "home" and "awake/sleep" at the same time) to save your art piece with your photos.

We look forward to your feature requests on how to make the app better!

Requirement: Compatible with iPhone and iPod touch. Requires iPhone OS 2.1 or later.

MyPaint2 1.2

MyPaint2 v1.2

Description
MyPaint is a hugely popular finger painting iPhone app enjoyed by tens of thousands of creative iPhone owners. We've tested quite a few paint-type applications for the iPhone to date but most of them are pretty lackluster little numbers.

Though maybe it just seems that way because we're so used to the splendor of desktop renditions of this type of software. Either way, MyPaint2 promises to be one of the fuller featured paint apps of the bunch.

The tools menu initially seems relatively basic but there's a lot of sliders that let you customise the fundamentals. For example, the mandatory pencil tool can be changed into various different shapes.

MyPaint2 lets you choose between six different shaped brushes including the expected circle and square but also more fun versions such as stars and hearts.

Once you've got the shape you want you can also change the size from 1 to 60 pixels in width. A second slider lets you change the opacity of the brush from 1 to 10, adding another level of customisation.

One of the main issues with many apps such as this on the iPhone is the colour pallet. Some apps have as little as 6 but MyPaint2 has 25 pastely colours to choose from.

As if that wasn't enough to get your creative juices flowing, there is also a custom colour maker with red, green and blue sliders that lets you achieve any shade in between those in the standard pallet.

Being a photo editing app, you may not be surprised to learn that MyPain2 will let you import photos from your library. Once a photo is imported, you can rotate it round til it's how you want it.

When you've finished tinkering around you can save your image locally or even upload it the MyBuzz.com.au website though to do this you'll first need to create an account.

There are a couple of downsides to the app. Mainly, the 'undo' button doesn't have a great memory and will only undo a handful of paint strokes. Secondly, it doesn't have a 'redo' button so if you do one click too many, you'll lose your work.

Compared to the features that it does have though, these niggles are work-roundable.

It doesn't suffer from the usual iPhone issue of the touchscreen not lending itself to drawing accurately with an index finer, but MyPaint2 is certainly worth a £1.19 punt if you're after a pain application.
