Announcing the PixSteward 48-Hour Apocalypse Sale - Published on 12/20/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

At Pubblog, we're taking this whole Mayan end-of-the-world prediction pretty seriously. For the next 48 hours, we've slashed the price of a fully-licensed version of PixSteward to a perfect, apocalyptic $1.08. PixSteward lets users download their Flickr photostreams to their Mac. With its powerful relational database, users can find, sort, and export single images or multi-picture sets from their Flickr archive, even when they aren't connected to the Internet.

Murfreesboro, Tennessee - At PixSteward - the bettr Flickr archivr for Mac - we're taking this whole Mayan end-of-the-world prediction pretty seriously.

That's why, for the next 48 hours, we've slashed the price of a fully-licensed version of PixSteward to a perfect, apocalyptic $1.08 - as in 108 cents. (read the Wikipedia entry to find out why 108 is perfect). Now, if Saturday dawns bright and clear and we're all still here you can be sure you won't get PixSteward at this price for at least another thousand years.

So take advantage now. Get to PixSteward online and backup your photos from Flickr in a relational database on your Mac that you can take with you to whatever universe we're all headed toward.

PixSteward is the essential Flickr backup and database for Macintosh. PixSteward lets users download their Flickr photostreams to their Mac, along with any titles, tags, descriptions, geographic info and EXIF data they have entered online. With PixSteward's powerful relational database, users can find, sort, and export single images or multi-picture sets from their Flickr archive - even when they aren't connected to the Internet.

PixSteward is especially helpful for Flickr Pro users or those who need to manage multiple Flickr accounts. With Flickr Pro accounts, PixSteward downloads and stores the original images from Flickr - JPEGs, GIFs and PNGs - so artwork containing transparency or vector paths (Photoshop JPEG) is preserved.

Photostream search with PixSteward is far faster and more sophisticated than online. PixSteward allows you to enter up to 20 terms per search and lets you name and save frequently-used searches. Database experts can "roll their own" by editing the SQL statement directly.

Results of searches can be rapidly exported from PixSteward for use in other image-editing applications and the user has an option to export "sidecar" text files containing the combined Flickr and EXIF metadata along with pictures.

When you are connected to the Internet and logged in to Flickr, PixSteward permits editing picture metadata, thus insuring sync is maintained between the cloud and your PixSteward local archive.

PixSteward goes well beyond other Flickr backup applications which merely download your photos to a folder. By combining image and metadata backup with a powerful relational database engine, PixSteward gives you the power of Flickr right on your Mac. With PixSteward you can use Flickr with greater confidence, knowing your essential images and information are safely preserved and accessible offline.

As Pubblog's veteran Mac developer John Seward (MailSteward, FileMyFiles) likes to say, "PixSteward doesn't replace Flickr, it completes it."

Brisk Mobile/YETiCGI Launch Roaming Fortress-A New Take on Tower Defense - Published on 12/20/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie game developers Brisk Mobile and YETi CGI have joined forces for the launch of Roaming Fortress: a new genre-bending approach to tower defense. Bring the fight to your foes as you journey across the battlegrounds of the Sirenian Desert on the back of the lumbering Burdenbeast, crushing the menacing Goblin Horde and carrying your fortress to victory. A must-have for any gamer's Christmas wish list, Roaming Fortress is now available worldwide in both the iTunes and Android app stores.

Mississauga, Canada - Brisk Mobile, a leading mobile game developer and publisher in partnership with Michigan based game developers YETi CGI, today is thrilled to announce the launch of Roaming Fortress: a genre-bending new take on tower defense. Bring the fight to your foes as you journey across the battlegrounds of the Sirenian Desert on the back of the lumbering Burdenbeast, crushing the menacing Goblin Horde and carrying your fortress to victory. A must-have for any gamer's Christmas wish list, Roaming Fortress is now available worldwide in both the iTunes and Android app stores.

"As two independent gaming companies we're very excited to team up and offer a completely original tower defence game that raises the bar with exceptional gameplay experiences", said Tim Harrison, Director of Gaming for Brisk Mobile. "this includes beautifully drawn graphics, a unique combat system using over 50 squads and over 75 levels of game-play". Roaming Fortress has garnered rave early reviews and underscores Brisk's commitment to working with talented, enthusiastic developers like YETi CGI.

The Story:
Long ago, the Kingdom of Manatalopia stretched far across the Sirenian Desert. Life in the empire was good, just, and beautiful... Without warning, a devastating force of legend, the Goblin Horde, marched on the Kingdom of Manatalopia. The barbaric Horde showed no mercy. The brave Manatalopian Knights took up arms to defend the vast empire, but the attack was too sudden, the Horde too powerful.

At the hands of the merciless Horde, the empire was swiftly destroyed. Driven into the borderlands of their once great empire, the surviving Manatalopian Knights devised an ambitious plan to retake the lost kingdom and mete out justice on the Horde by moving their remaining fortress onto the back of the mythical Burdenbeast. The result: the Roaming Fortress. So begins the campaigns of the Manatalopian Knights to reclaim the lost kingdom and drive the evil forces back from whence they came.

"YETi CGI is committed to creating great games and Brisk Mobile has been hugely supportive, giving us the ability to focus on what we do best: create and innovate," said Cory Heald, Creative Lead and CEO of YETi CGI.

Do you look more like Mum or Dad? There's an app for that - Published on 12/20/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

UK based Liquid5 today introduces Mum or Dad 1.0, its new entertainment application for iOS. Mum or Dad aims to settle the age old dispute of whether a person looks more like their mother or their father in a quick and entertaining way. The app scans a photograph and then compares it to the two selected photos of the parents. Mum or Dad uses the Fibonacci Ratio to scan the parents' faces and map their features, which are then compared with the user's photo.

London, United Kingdom - Ted Nash, one of the UK's youngest entrepreneurs, is pleased to release Mum or Dad under the Liquid5 umbrella, a business venture which he has co-founded with Nick Reffit.

"We are delighted to announce the launch of our latest application, Mum or Dad." said Nash, CEO of Liquid5. "We are committed on delivering entertainment and a moment of laughter to people from all walks of life. I realize that an application like Mum or Dad might not be a legitimate business in its own right but the network effect of multiple applications can become hugely valuable when we come to launch a more sustainable product and cross promote our user base."

Mum or Dad aims to settle the age old dispute of whether a person looks more like their mother or their father in a quick and entertaining way. The app scans a photograph and then compares it to the two selected photos of the parents. The result is then delivered by using the same algorithm that powered Nash's previous App Store hit, Fit or Fugly. Mum or Dad uses the Fibonacci Ratio to scan the parents' faces and map their features, which are then compared with the user's photo.

This is a quick and reliable method of finding similarities between features and determining which two faces have most in common with 100% accuracy. Users can upload photos from the image gallery on their mobile phone, from Facebook albums, or even snap a picture straight for the app. Any ongoing debate between friends or family can now be settled within seconds.

Nash became an online personality in 2010 after he launched Little Gossip, a website where users could post gossip about their classmates anonymously. The venture attracted a lot of attention from the press, as it received over 33,000 page views in the first hour. Little Gossip paved the way for two more hugely successful apps, Fit or Fugly and Rack Stare. The two brought in around 1 million in revenue with over two and a half million downloads, and Nash was dubbed a "viral hitmaker" by Wired.

Nash started his first online business when he was only 12 years old, and since then he has been tirelessly working to develop new and exciting ventures. Liquid5, the new face of Venevi Enterprises, is planning the release of two more apps, FaceFriends and GF vs BF. So, If you want to end your curiosity and discover which parent you most resemble, download Mum or Dad from the App Store today.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3/4/5 gen) and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 9.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Mum or Dad 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Entertainment category.

"People's lives aren't one-dimensional so having just one calendar to display your best daily photo often isn't enough," said Stuart Watson, Founder of The Lens Lab. "With the Collect app users could have a photo-a-day album for their kids and a different one for their best Instagram photos."

Remember Every Day in 2013:
Photo-a-day enthusiasts already know the value of collecting their important photos every day to visually document their lives. The practice requires discipline but technology like the iPhone in people's pockets makes it easier than ever to collect quality photos every day.

Standing out from other solutions, the Collect app enables users to setup multiple calendars for different subjects and collect one or more photos every day depending on their preference. Photos can be recorded with a caption, notes, and tags to ensure users can also recall important details behind each one. The app then presents each photo in a card-like display along with the date and caption.

"Starting out 2013 with the goal of collecting a photo every day should be fun not a chore," said Watson. "We've invested in a unique design and easy-to-use interface to make the experience of collecting photos every day an engaging and rewarding one."
