iOrnament Pro – art, fun, calm 4+

Shoule be Top Editors Choice App Pic

I have loved this app since it first came out. Every time a new feature is added I can’t wait to try it! I love the glitter effect and the embossing effect, I love that you can adjust the lighting on the image usng the embossing effect. I love you can add sparkles to your images. With the most recent updates, I LOVE the ability to use your own imges and with the “ghost” feature you can get a custom cut out of the image. I love the custom brush options too. You can make your image rotate, change colors or give it a multi dimentional effect using the 3D and Spirals option, you can share your creation as a gif or video. Create custom mandalas, or just about any pattern combination you can think of. Hands down one of my favorite apps.

Crashed my iPad twice!

Im an artist and I liked this app, there are some things I would like to have there to have more flexibility and abilities during the creating process, but it was pleasurable enough for a few weeks since Ive got it until all of the sudden it crashed my iPad! The screen got black with couple of flashing strips across, and I couldn't even turn off my device does not matter how many times Ive tried! All I could see the screen is not off completely. Some thing like that happen a few years ago with my Desktop when virus killed my hard drive. So I thought 'That's it! Good buy iPad!'... Then fortunately about 5-7 minutes later my iPad went off. So Ive waited for another 5 min and turned it back on, and was happy to see, that its not 'dead', but I gave it another try with this app and when I ask it to continue on my project (which was an Easter Egg) my iPad momentarily crashed again in the same manner. So, when I was able to turn it back on, I just deleted this app - no more tries, could cost me a lot! If developer will try and fix the problem would be nice, because this app can really do the job! Ive got two of this apps in the bundle, and Im afraid to try the other one even I did not delete the other one yet.

Developer Response ,

Dear NEW4600, Sorry, for the inconveniences. You definitely should give the 2.0 version of iOrnament a try. It comes with many new features and it is much more stable than the old version to which your review refers. In case you still encounter problems please feel free to contact me via the science-to-touch.com website.

Disappointed in the pro’s image quality compared to the original version

First I have to say I love iOrnament app. I do a lot of mandalas and intricate drawing with it. When I saw the pro version, I had to buy it. However, after playing with it for a bit, I noticed some difference in the image quality. When drawing in pro, my lines have a much more pixelated edge rather than a nice smooth edge that I get with the original app. I switched back to the original and will continue using until this issue is fixed. I have screen shot the images made in both apps and you can definitely see the difference. I do have the high res turned on.

I also did not like that when you export the image, the whole screen is exported not just my image but also the black background making the image even smaller pixels as I get a 4096x 4096 in the original app and only 4096x3072, making it only 3072x3072 when I crop off the black background. I feel the image quality has decreased with the new pro version.

I’d also like to see a full 300 dpi for images as line work prints best at 300 dpi. When I change 264 to 300 in my editing software, my image print size is reduced.
