I didn't expect much, but was pleasantly surprised. Nice, simple app, producing great looking results, unlike any other app in my arsenal.

I am very happy the developers kicked up the res on the app. It does crash a little though on my 3G. But I still like it anyway. I haven't used it on my IPad yet.

I'm really happy with the new update even though, like Cliff, it crashes a little on my 3G. I'll take it regardless, and have a ton of fun getting some really random effects on my photos.
