Live FX for iPhone/iPod Touch allows you to easily create and apply thousands of unique photo effects in a new way of filter stacking/layering, using iPhone camera to preview all effect live. It has never been easier to share created filters between users - simply copy/paste a special code automatically generated for any combination of effects.

grab this is wicked fun.
Amazing app
nice, but not for free here (germany)
Not free in europa ???
also in the austrian appstore the app is NOT free!
It was free in the UK when I posted this news, but looks like the developer was in a different timezone to us Europeans who missed out on this offer.
I'll share some data - there were approximately 3000 free downloads in Europe and 4000 in North America. So the giveaway was quite significant!
However a tiny percent of iPhone/iPod owners just were grabbing the free app and then delete it with 1 star review - very motivating for ever making giveaways again :)
Strangely, but the update 1.0.1 is still in review. Apple seems to approve new apps faster then the updates - actually a lite version "Live FX Free" has just been approved.
You can download "Live FX Free" now - the labels and other fixes do present in "Live FX Free". Limitations in free version - small image size when saving (300-400px) and inability to import filters. So try the app for free and then if you like it - upgrade it for 1.99$. Quite fair, isn't it?
@ Nick hey. I just wanted to say I actually really like your app. It takes some time to get used to but once you do it is a very powerful app. I bought it because you were very responsive to the community. Once I got the hang of it I really like it.
I am a OCD and I wish you could change the added faves icons image. I find myself copying the code, closing the program, opening it to get default zebra image, and pasting the copied code, d saving that as a new fave, and then deleting the old fave. Turns in to allot of steps.

Unfortunately this is the fastest way to get that zebra on button. You may also save the default picture to camera roll and load it from there before saving effects, this may be less time consuming.
