• A LOLdog I produced employing PicSay. PicSay's explained purpose is to e-mail or text annotated picture communications to close friends, but there's nothing at all avoiding you from applying the free of charge program as a makeshift image editor. PicSay is a basic request built especially for Yahoo Android os, but it's however the virtually all customization-focused application I've researched today. You start off by deciding on a picture from your picture record or the image you virtually all recently viewed (this won't operate if your Google android mobile is normally in mass safe-keeping setting.) Afterward press the Menu key element to start adding in the distinctive results: word balloons, colorful titles, cartoony photos, and zany picture distortions. There happen to be considerably more sober embellishments, as well. You'll come to be in a position to stamp an photo with a time and particular date, and can mouse click into Effects to change hue, vividness, sepia shades, and color equilibrium.

  • The united team behind the screen-recording utility Camtasia have released a simplified, experimental version of the technology, packaged into a nice downloadable application for Mac and Windows called the Jing Project. Jing makes it very easy to grab screenshots and videos from your PC straight, and then save them or share them on the Web. The coolest part of this experiment--in theory--is Jing's integration with Screencast.com, a hosting service for videos recorded off your computer. Once you've recorded a video, you can save it to your Screencast account, and from there you can get an embed code to put it in a blog page or other page. The experimental Jing is great, but oddly, the well-established Screencast.com site is the weak link in the chain. It's unattractive, and the embed codes are impossible to find nearly. On the plus side, the Screencast.com trial doesn't apply to Jing users--Jing has announced that the $6.95 monthly charge gets waived for Jing users. Still, Jing really needs a easy and quick way to upload files to more free vid-sharing sites. FLV uploads are recommended to be in H.264, but other than that, for a clean, flexible, and almost fun way to grab pictures and onscreen videos, Jing really can't be beat. UPDATE: Jing announced on June 18th that Screencast.com is free for Jing fans.

  • When you're an actress as inimitable as Julie Newmar, of course a rose is had by you, a day lily, and an orchid named in your honor. In 1995 she also inspired (and made a cameo appearance in) "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar." Best known for playing Catwoman on the "Batman" TV series, Newmar will appear as part of the California Independent Film Festival's screening of "To Wong Foo." I chatted with Julie Newmar about her most iconic roles, working with the late Robin Williams, her chemistry with Adam West, the Hollywood casting couch, and her favorite apps. at the Castro Theatre on Friday." credit="" alt="To Wong Foo, Julie Newmar" creditUrl="" targetUrl=""/> What will you be doing at the "To Wong Foo" screening? I have to walk onstage, and that takes some doing. I have to be funny, so please somebody write me a script. I have to look fabulous then, so I need someone to give me a beautiful hat or headpiece. I'm putting out an SOS for something elegant, so the whole audience will go, "Wow." I want everyone there screaming and yelling, just like at "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." What was your experience working on that movie? Oh, it was so much fun -- scrumptious and divine just. Working with Robin Williams, who we lost, and being on set in New York -- it was wonderful. And Long Island, where they did the finale with all the "girls" in the high heels, sinking into the grass, all looking as if nothing could have bothered them or anything, 'cause it all had to be so beautiful. Oh my God, how we puff up life. Did you feel honored to have a movie named after you? I wouldn't have thought that my name would be in that funny title and the even funnier story, but what could have been better? But there's so much joy. It personifies me really, this film. We're on earth to mainly enjoy ourselves, not to preach anything. We're all different, so joy is the key. Drag was everywhere in the mid-'90s, between films like "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" and "To Wong Foo," and of course RuPaul was breaking out. He is still. I should be invited by him to his promenade, you know? Work it, girl! It was so impactful to see three straight actors -- Wesley Snipes, Patrick Swayze, and John Leguizamo -- in drag. Oh, how too divine. Wasn't Wesley wonderful with all his muscles and brawn? But I'd be hard-pressed to say which one was the best, 'cause each of the guys was best at his own drag. We hope the gay community forgives us for straight men playing gay men playing whatever, but we're all borrowing and imitating here on Earth and stealing from the other. Julie Newmar is sandwiched between the late Patrick Wesley and Swayze Snipes. Tell us something we don't know about the making of "To Wong Foo."
