QuickAdvice: 3D Photo Turns Your Photos Into Interesting 3D Shapes

QuickAdvice: 3D Photo Turns Your Photos Into Interesting 3D Shapes

3D Photo is not exactly what it sounds like from the name. You might be expecting something like 3D Camera, an app which allows you to create actual 3D photos that you would look at through those funky red and blue glasses. 3D Photo is really an art-photography app, more along the lines of Fracture or VideoScope. However, it’s really something different from any other app I’ve seen. It allows you to turn your photos into bizarre, three-dimensional art.

AppGuide Updated: Book Apps For iPad

AppGuide Updated: Book Apps For iPad

With the addition of the OverDrive Media Console to the App Store (and a request from one of our readers), we felt this AppGuide was due for an update. And of course, with the arrival of the iPad 2 and all the new iPad owners out there, more and more people are reading books on the iPad. Luckily there are many wonderful options for reading on the iPad. Actually, most of these apps are universal, so if you have an iPhone or iPod touch (in addition to or instead of an iPad) and you like to read, you will definitely find this AppGuide useful.
