Hey

Seems like I've been slacking a bit with the free photo apps.  The tripod post wasn't really an "app" but it is photo related and I used the tripod again for this post.  It still worked despite not having the mystery spring.

BOOM!

I made this crappy animated gif with a free app called GifBoom.  It works, but the app layout is a bit weird and the gif making needs a few more options.  When you first start the app you see a bunch of gifs uploaded by GifBoom users and they all seem to be 14 years old.  Of course they can all add text and do crap I'm not sure how to do, but that's because I'm old and totally not cool.  You can register for login at GifBoom, but it is not required to create a picture.  You just record a short video and the program selects a bunch of stills from the video and you can add or remove what pictures you want.  Then you can view your gif and add or remove more pictures from the sequence if you like.  You can also adjust the speed, orientation or direction as in make it go forwards or backwards.  Once done you generate your gif and then you can can share it, save it to your gallery or upload it to Twitter, Tumblr or Facebook.  The picture quality isn't the greatest but you are able to record with the outer or the inner camera.  But again it's free and it works.

Since after the Add-a-cat app Cam and Cara went out and made a Cam w/cat picture.  I challenge you guys to make an animated gif and it I hope it's better than mine.
