Our app is about making and sharing simple wallpaper-like photo collages. The characteristics of casual photography has changed from huge amounts of pictures to just a few, well-edited memories. VPA is a new way to share your photos and archiving your memories from short trips. Our app will get the pictures from the phone memory or camera. We will have an empty space (maybe some buttons, bar on a side) to create a collage. You can place and re-size the pictures with direct manipulation (resize to be discussed) and the pictures can be overlapping and have some effects such as retro-styled framing and editing (eg. Polaroid). The background can be anything, ideally some landscape or other large object. It will be possible to add a limited amount of text over the picture mash-up. Additionally some other form of decoration might be included.
Make easily and quickly a collage of a few photos and text. Registered users will get benefits. List of client/server technologies The client component will be the one handling one collage of pictures for one user. The server side will be handling the information about users and their previously made collages.
We are pretty sure we will be developing for iPad. We love the device’s big screen and have three iPad´s on our disposal for testing.
The app makes use of the canvas APIs where the pictures will be displayed for editing and creating an album. Our app will be using photos that are stored in the device. We will use also the iPad’s camera to take the pictures that the collage is made of and also GPS for geotagging the pictures (http://instagr.am/ this will do the geotagging and will also be the social photostream). Posting edited photo collages to a social photo stream (Flickr, Facebook) will be possible.
