If you're looking for something along the lines of Instagram or Hipstamatic for the BlackBerry PlayBook, we have a temporary solution. Forums member daspop spotted a great website called Pixlr-o-matic that works great on the PlayBook. To use it is simple - head to pixlr.com/o-matic in your PlayBook browser. Choose "computer" and open a stored image, then choose your filter from the scrolling list at the bottom. When your're done choose Save and the image will be saved to your pictures folder - that's it! Granted it's not the best solution as an app with these features would be way better, but it's pretty sweet and totally free. Get started at http://pixlr.com/o-matic. Check out a few images after the break.
