If you feel like you're missing out in the Instagram craze, look no further than PixTrix. PixTrix is a BlackBerry application that lets you apply a bunch of custom filters to photos right on your device. Open an image and choose from filters such as double exposure, vintage, saturation and more. From there you can choose to save the image back to your device or upload to Facebook.
While PixTrix isn't perfect, it does get the job done. The interface is a bit clunky and had an awkward layout. Some processes take a bit to get done and I feel some things could be fixed to make the app much better (like choosing an image) but free is free right? Grab it from the link below then drop a comment and let us know what you think!

Customize your photos with PixTrix for BlackBerry
Eh, I'd much rather get an actual camera like the ones in the picture. The TLR (twin-lens-reflex) design is old enough to be uncommon and quite interesting to look at in the modern age. However, the only camera in that photo that I'd be interested in would be one of the Yashica models at the top. Alternatively, I could go for a Mamiya C330 or a Rollei, both of which would cost a little more. As far as those vintage brownies, they're always in such poor shape in thrift stores that I'm not even sure I'd want to try making one work.
P.S. Yes, I am the weirdo that walks around doing event photography with a 50's style Graflex press camera, which could knock the socks off of any of these for image quality :-)
Maybe cause I am still rocking a Storm 1 but the first time I ran this it killed(caused restart) my phone....will update on second attempt once she comes back up...
The results from this app are real nice. The app itself however is slow. If you have the patience to wait for it to save, check this app out.
So i attempted to download this application and got an error message stating that my browser was not supported. It is the native browser that the Torch came with. Not sure why this happened. Once you ok that you get to the App world then you get a list of programs instead of the one your looking for. I will skip this one....
Been using this App for over a month , its very nice does what it sets out to do
It's a good start and the author is making constant improvements. The new v1.2 works pretty smoothly. Fun photo app (think Instagram).
