TOKYO (MacHouse) – If I run out of software development ideas, what I usually do is… Hmm… Well… I just get on the Internet and look around till a light bulb turns on. That’s what happened a few days ago. As a result, I submitted a new software title to Mac App Store a few hours ago. This new software release is called Distoria.

Distoria is a desktop application that gives you 5 tools to distort a picture. Click anywhere over the picture to use the selected graphic filter. You can apply the same graphic filter to the picture repeatedly or use a combination of these tools to distort the picture. The application supports the full stack of Undo & Redo changes. So if you want to cancel the last effect, just press Command + Z.   Continue reading →

TOKYO (MacHouse) – It was a record month last March where I released seven applications. Now, I’ve run out of ideas. Guess what I do when I run out of development ideas. That’s when I upgrade existing ones. What I submitted to Mac App Store about a few hours ago is an upgrade to Pict2Curl. And my latest new software release is called Pict2Curl 2.

Pict2Curl 2 is a desktop application that lets you combine two pictures to create a new one that looks like the top picture is curled in a way such that you can see part of the bottom picture. It’s a major upgrade to an existing software title. Version 2 has been developed from a scratch and utilizes a different Core Image filter.   Continue reading →

TOKYO (MacHouse) – This March has turned out to be a quite productive month for me. So far, I have released six applications. Of course, most of them are small ones except attributedCode.

PhotoSnap is a simple desktop application that lets you put a photo in a simple, solid-color frame with a pin at the top. You have 21 figures to choose from to shape a pin.   Continue reading →
