Presenting PictoBlend!


PictoBlend serves many purposes, but was initially made to simulate the effects of a high exposure time when taking photos. It turns out that it does the high exposure effect well, and that you can make very interesting photos that way.

The app is very easy to use, the user interface is simple and self- explanatory, saving you tons of time.

In a nutshell, this is how PictoBlend works: The iPhone camera has a shutter time of 200 ms, that can’t be changed. The workaround is to take multiple pictures and blend them together, therefore the name PictoBlend. The app allows you to take and blend up to 200 pictures, depending on variables like alpha and up to 28 different blend modes. The blend modes lets you decide how the images are blended witch colors to include or ignore. With the 28 different modes you can apply, you can create some very cool effects.
