Paintrala Review: Instagram for Creative People - Create Great Drawings from Pictures - Android Apps and Games

Introduction:
Paintrala is an app which is kind of like instagram for people who like to draw or sketch pictures. It has a built in social network where users can automatically share their drawings and receive comments, likes and more for their artwork. In addition the app has several tools that help users make some really interesting artwork by allowing them to trace over any picture from your gallery.
How do you use it?
One of the main features of this app is the ability to create art, drawings or paintings from pictures on your phone. In essence this app removes the brain-freeze of not know what to draw and all the complexities behind art by allowing you to select a photo and trace it with their many tools.
Features:
Once you enter the app it's divided into 3 sections: Gallery, Painting Section and Contest. In gallery you will see how a lot of people created some really unique artwork from their own pictures using different tools which I will list below.
Like I mentioned above, you will have the ability to sketch and draw over what you want to do. But it really goes alot further than that. After you upload a favorite picture, you can choose from what kind of sketch you want to do.
1. Pen & Sketch Style
2. Color Pencil Sketch
3. Cartoon Style
4. Oil Painting
5. Gray
6. Vignette
7. Pastel Sketch
The contest section is unique, The developer regularly has contents (currently has done 4) and you can see all the other artwork that similar like-minded people have uploaded.
Is it addictive?
As a kid I have always been sketching, I'm sure many of you have done that in class. If that habit has stuck with you over the years you will really appreciate this app. I myself am a horrible artist and my sketches are comparably worse than a gradeschooler. However with this app it really takes the difficulty out of drawing because you are sketching and tracing over some of your favorite pictures. Also since it's free, so it doesn't hurt to try it out.

Sorry about that, I hope you understand my point of view
Thanks a lot, appreciate it
Hi.
Great app. Simple and beautiful!
Would it be possible to make a small change to the portrait layout?
Instead of 4 pictures per row, show only 2 per row?
Also, can you show the photo name in the detail view?
Thanks.

GET THIS AMAZING APP HERE
Interface
When you launch the app, you get a menu system that lets you choose
one of four options: capture, gallery, collage and share. Diving into each,
the UI is generally what you'd expect. The buttons are self-explanatory,
and you get a regular phone camera-style viewfinder.
Filters
PowerCam offers a decent set of filters, most of which are a bit too over-the-top
for my own taste. You get a standard set of minor filters to lightly tweak the coloring
of the scene that are quite nice, but the rest are a bit out there and I really don't
see many people using them. For the ones that I liked, it seemed to work well enough.
It should also be noted that there is a "no filter" mode for when you have the app open
and want a "regular" shot.
Tilt-Shift
The tilt-shift method, if you're not familiar, is something usually accomplished with
a special camera lens to produce interestingly focused images. The main subject
is sharply in focus, and everything else is quickly out of focus right next to it.
On a smartphone, its all done in post-processing. PowerCam seems to do a pretty
good job, and you can really get some good shots if you spend some time with it.
Panorama
I was surprised by the panorama quality. Using the app on my Galaxy Nexus,
it captured them more consistently and much quicker than the built-in panorama
feature of the Android 4.x camera.
Collages
Something that's going to be very user-dependent is the collage feature.
You can select several pictures you've taken and form them into framed multi-shot pictures.
The UI is friendly enough, just select from your picture list which ones you want,
and it'll arrange them randomly with a frame. You can shuffle the pictures around
and select the frame style, but I was hard-pressed to find frames that I actually enjoyed.
Sharing
PowerCam has built-in sharing functionality to Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr.
Wish that it would use a regular sharing menu and let you use other apps (like Google+),
but it doesn't really matter, as you can share from your Gallery app to anything installed
on your phone after the fact.

For any suggestion, bug report, feature request, anything, feel free to write me at [email protected]. I am very interested in any kind of feedback.
Carbon is still in a very early launching phase. Any help in spreading the word is highly appreciated. If you like Carbon, please rate it and leave a comment! Thanks

Are you in a creative mood? Do you need some support to let your imagination run wild and do something unique on your Android device?
Then, FreshCoat might be the answer that you are looking for. I am saying that as long as this new Android app known as FreshCoat offers you the possibility to create your own wallpapers in various ways. :laugh:
How to Create the Ideal Wallpaper with FreshCoat:
First of all, take FreshCoat by accessing this direct link to Google Play
Install it on your Android device;
Let the fun begin:
As I have told you from the start, you have the chance to use your camera to capture any color you see around you and love! All you have to do is to center the desired color in your camera and take a shot! For the best results, you must use solid colored objects and good lighting and be sure that the color will be as accurate as the quality of the shot that you’ve taken;
Create your own color with the help of a RGB color code, a HEX color code, or by using a color chooser dialog;
Choose various effects to add on top of your colors to make them even nicer;
Choose an image from your gallery and transform it into a custom wallpaper with effects, blur, filters, and 8-Bit Retro;
Once you are done, don’t forget to hit the checkmark in the top right to set the image as your background;
You can also choose to hit the save button to save you image to your SD card for future use or to share with your friends.
If you would like to enjoy even more effects, there is also a FreshCoat Premium Key in the Play Store! And this is also your chance to remove the annoying ads found in the standard version!
