PicStory for BlackBerry 10 When I first opened up PicStory, it certainly looked promising. You are presented with uploads from other PicStory users, all of which you can rate, comment or flag. Then you see a camera icon at the bottom for you to create your own. With a variety of frames available you can be sure to find one that suits for the style you want. Just pick the frame you want and start adding pictures.
Do this by selecting a section and choosing a photo to go in there. Once you have the selected photo, you have a choice of adding some effects and filters too. There's quite a bit to choose from which makes it nice. You can also change the design of the frame itself.
— Instant Florida driving records are now available online from State of Florida.com. Students taking this online course also have the option to take their DMV Exam online (road rules and road signs exam) at the end of the course.
There's choice between different colors, patterns and designs depending on the type of picture you want to produce. You can also add some stickers to the photo too. Again, with a nice variety - from butterflies, birds, food and more. Once you are happy with the final design of your PicStory you can then upload it to either Facebook or Twitter, make it your BBM profile pic or just go ahead and post it to your PicStory catalogue. Apart from frames, you can add graphic designs to your photos instead. There is a nice selection of graphics that come under a kind of theme. Select the theme from the top row and then you are presented with different designs similar to that.
There's even a BlackBerry Spark design frame too. Though in the thumbnail selection menu, these do show up quite pixelated but not in the end result, so not a huge deal. While there isn't an actual option to save the photo to you BlackBerry device, they do seem to save anyway. I was initially annoyed when I couldn't find a way to save the photo but when browsing through my photos I did find ones I created in the Photos folder of the device. PicStory doesn't stop at just the ability to create photo frames. It's also community-based and you can see what others have uploaded.
You can then comment and 'like' the photos too. One thing that did baffle me about PicStory is that after creating your very first photo, before uploading, you are asked to login with either your Facebook account, Twitter account or your PicStory account, if you have one. If you don't have one, there doesn't seem to be an option for you to create one. Which seems quite odd. So, how do you get an account in the first place to login? As I couldn't find a way to create one, I decided to go ahead and use my Twitter account.
Logging in seems to be the only way to save the photos and view them via the app. It is also the only way to comment or like other's photos too. I'd rather not have to use my Facebook or Twitter account to login.
I contacted the developer to find out exactly why this is and they responded saying that they phased out creating accounts. Only those who created an account initially have the ability to login in via their account. Any new users will have to login in using either Facebook or Twitter to use the app.
This is a bit of a bummer as I would much prefer an account but it's not huge deal breaker for me personally. PicMix for BlackBerry 10 Upon loading up PicMix, you can already see similarities to PicStory. You are presented with the most popular photos with further options in the menu or Action Bar.
One thing that is very clear is the ability to register or login from the get go. Even before creating your photo. There is no need to use a social media login either. PicMix does have a a wider variety of frames available, split into different categories.
