Tayasui Sketches 2 for iPad adds Layers, Backgrounds for Budding Artists - Published on 07/30/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Paris based Tayasui today releases version 2.0 of its popular Sketches app for iPad, which reached 2 million downloads in its first month of availability and was prominently featured by Apple. Users can now import images directly onto the canvas from the photo library or by taking a shot with the iPad's built-in camera. Layers support offers artists a whole new level of freedom and possibilities to test designs and add depth to their illustrations.

Paris, France - Tayasui today released a huge upgrade to its popular Sketches app for iPad, which reached 2 million downloads in its first month of availability and was prominently featured by Apple. Version 2.0 adds the two most highly requested features from users: Layers and Photo Import. Users can now import images directly onto the canvas from the photo library or by taking a shot with the iPad's built-in camera. Adding multiple layers offers artists a whole new level of freedom and possibilities to test designs and add depth to their illustrations.

The original version of Sketches, released earlier this year, raced into the Top 10 charts of the iTunes App Store all around the world.

"We were overwhelmed by the app's huge and immediate success," says Tayasui's Yann le Coroller, the app's Creative Director. "Now with the addition of layers, Sketches is not only the most stunning and intuitive drawing app in the App Store, it's the best drawing app period."

Much of the app's success is due to its clever interface, which allows users to draw freely on every pixel of the iPad's gorgeous screen. Tools can be hidden when not in use, and clever gestures make the app not only swift and responsive, but amazingly fun to use.

"Beautiful tools make beautiful drawings," quips Yann. "We spent countless hours with professional illustrators to create an app that is vividly real and removes all visual distractions. It actually encourages you to express yourself, even if you are picking up a virtual brush for the very first time."

Tayasui Sketches is designed for versatility and is suitable for everything from architectural sketches to cartoon illustration and watercolor painting. It functions as an ideal piece of virtual paper to take notes, sketch diagrams and create layered technical drawings. Users can share their works of art via email, Facebook, or Twitter, and can now export layers as transparent image files to use in desktop apps like Photoshop. Drawings can also be shared to the Tayasui website for all to admire.

"Tayasui users have sent us countless drawings and thank-you notes," explains Le Coroller. "So we had the idea of creating a fun place where everyone, from professionals to amateurs, could share their drawings with the world."

Language Support:
* English

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad 2 or later, iPad mini

Tayasui Sketches 2.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category.

Word Association Football: Puzzle Game of Words Associated via Pictures - Published on 07/30/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bowerhaus today introduces Word Association Football 1.0, its free word puzzle game for iOS, based on an idea of combining popular word associations with pictures. Players must go from a start word to an end word using three Picture Associations, each one chosen from a random group of 7 or more pictures at the botom of the screen. The challenge is in guessing the correct links from one word to the next AND in judging what picture is used to represent each word.

Ampthill, United Kingdom - Bowerhaus today is pleased to introduce Word Association Football 1.0, its free puzzle game for iOS, where players must get from a starting word to an ending word using three Picture Associations. Each is chosen from a horizontally scrolling group of unrelated pictures at the bottom of the screen. The pictures can be enlarged for easy viewing on smaller screens and each can only be used once per game.

An example puzzle might start with the word "pirate" and end with the word "sand". From "pirate" players must select the association to a picture of a treasure chest. From "treasure";, the correct link is to a picture of an island. From "island", one must tap the picture of the sea and, finally, "sea" links logically to the end word, "sand".

Feature Highlights:
* Ingenious word/picture association game for one player
* Each puzzle challenges the player to go from the start word to the end word using associations between pictures, where each picture stands for a word
* Free game with 500+ levels
* Hints available through "unstickers"
* An advanced (harder) version of the game is also available

Word Association Football includes hundreds of unique levels, and the puzzles are progressively more challenging. An animated tutorial is available, and the game is easy to learn. All of the word associations used in the game have been collected from real people from around the world. The skill is in estimating the correct word associations for each puzzle but it is made even more challenging by the need to figure out the game designers' sometimes devilish choice of picture used for each word.

Unstickers are built-in hints to help players who find themselves stuck. The colored stickers come in three varieties: Easify - removes up to three of the unnecessary pictures from the slider; Reveal - fills in one of the correct pictures into the three-picture puzzle; and Skip - skips this puzzle and proceeds to the next. An alternative to unstickers is asking friends for help with a puzzle via the app's built-in Facebook and Twitter connectivity.

"The rules are simple. You have to get from a start word to an end word by using three associations - each one described by a picture," stated Andy Bower of Bowerhaus. "Not all the puzzles are as easy as you might think but, once you've mastered the standard game, there's an even tougher version waiting to twist your cortex. See if you can complete all the levels in both games for ultimate bragging rights!"

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 79.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Word Association Football 1.0 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. An advanced version of the game is available as an in-app purchase for $0.99 (USD).

Notebooks 6 for iOS expands Task Management, updates UI, adds VoiceOver - Published on 07/30/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent developer Alfons Schmid today announces Notebooks 6 for iPhone and iPad, updates of his comprehensive productivity apps that integrate a plain text, rich text and Markdown processor with complex task management and document storage. Version 6 adds support for recurring tasks, features a streamlined interface, advanced on screen text layout options and a set of task management and productivity enhancements. Accessibility has been much improved by consistently supporting VoiceOver.

Salzburg, Austria - Independent developer Alfons Schmid today is pleased to announce Notebooks 6 for iPhone and iPad, an update to his document creation and organization application. An integrated suite of productivity apps, Notebooks combines a plain text, formatted text, and Markdown text processor with complex task management and document storage. This substantial update features a streamlined user interface, adds repeating tasks, options to automatically extract tasks and context tags from documents, advanced layout options for plain text, syntax highlighting for Markdown and HTML, improved Markdown support, consistent support of VoiceOver to enhance accessibility, and many more productivity enhancements.

While Notebooks was originally designed to do away with paper notes, it has evolved into a suite of productivity apps and includes a text processor, provides space to store and organize files and documents, and even supports complex task management.

Users can create beautifully formatted documents using WYSIWYG style editing, create formatted HTML using Markdown, or simply type plain text notes, and all while using custom fonts, colors, and patterns. A user-defined row of extra keys provides access to characters that are hard to reach on the built-in keyboard and provides timesaving shortcuts.

Notebooks supports unlimited nested structures (books) to organize documents by topics, subjects, projects or any personal preferences. This makes it easy to separate private notes from business documents, client data from journal entries, or school subjects from each other.

A book in Notebooks displays its contents either as a list of documents or as a list of tasks with due dates and alert times if desired. Just as books can be nested, so can be task lists, and this allows users to break complex projects down into smaller, less intimidating packages that are easier to manage.

Notebooks is also a PDF converter that can convert documents from directly within the app. Users may set the page orientation and include password protection on the resulting PDF, saving time and providing document security.

The app also features embedded audio recording. Users may record Voice Memos while they are typing, and can copy and paste memos between notes, creating an interactive note-taking experience.

Notebooks handles all of a user's notes and documents: HTML, RTF, PDF, MS Office, iWork, photos, videos, web archives and more, and it features a number of options that facilitate import, export and synchronization:

* Import iPhone Notes and Palm Memos
* Create documents from the Clipboard
* Import web pages from Safari
* Import photos or videos
* Import and extract ZIP archives
* Create ZIP archives
* Convert documents to PDF
* Import documents from or send them to other apps
* Synchronize with Dropbox and WebDAV servers
* Synchronize between Notebooks on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, PC)
* Use WiFi sharing via a built in WebDAV server
* Use iTunes File Sharing

Notebooks 6 is a substantial update with a streamlined and more intuitive interface. It delivers numerous improvements for task management and supports advanced plain text layout options on iOS 6, like automatic paragraph alignment for lists or syntax highlighting for Markdown and HTML. Accessibility has been much improved as users can now use VoiceOver to fully control Notebooks. Many more user driven additions and improvements enhance Notebooks' productivity.

Feature Highlights:
* Create nested hierarchies (books)
* Formatted text, Markdown, plain text
* Manage nested task lists
* Assign due dates, alarm times and repeat intervals
* Import various types of documents and leverage user reference library
* Assign context tags to documents and books
* Move and rename documents and books
* Sort documents by various attributes
* Search books and documents by title
* Search full text of text, HTML, iWork, Office, RTF, and web archives
* Protect confidential documents with a code
* Use Notebooks links (URLs) to cross-reference books and documents
* Synchronize with Dropbox or WebDAV servers

Whether users want to draft or outline a business presentation, type a chapter of a short-story, list inventory, save web pages for reading later, write an entry in a diary or journal, tick off tasks, or just capture notes and ideas on the go, Notebooks is the all-inclusive note application that will effortlessly handle all tasks.

"Write and store all your journals, ideas, notes, drafts, diaries, projects, and task lists with ease," stated independent developer Alfons Schmid. "Notebooks is the one and only notebook that you'll ever need."

Desktop clients for Mac and PC are under development and will complement Notebooks for iOS. Beta versions of Notebooks for Mac/PC are currently available for free.

Language Support:
* U.S. English, German, French and Spanish

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later, iOS 6 required for some features

Pricing and Availability:
Notebooks 6 for iPad is $8.99 (USD) and Notebooks 6 for iPhone is $5.99, and both are available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category. Review copies are available on request.

Milano, Italy - MaBaSoft is pleased to announce the release of World Clock Deluxe 4.11, the latest version of their popular world time utility for Mac OS X. World Clock Deluxe is a reliable and easy-to-use time tool for companies and organizations regularly communicating with people across the world, frequent travelers, and home users having family or friends in other countries or time zones.

World Clock Deluxe displays multiple digital or analog clocks in a highly configurable horizontal or vertical palette, in the menu bar, and in the Dock, and can show the time in over 1,600 cities and 200 time zones and world times, including Greenwich Mean Time, Coordinated Universal Time, and Internet Time.

Nattress Contrast Plugins Released for Fianl Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, AE - Published on 07/30/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Noise Industries recently announced the availability of Nattress Contrast effects. The effects pack is compatible with Final Cut Pro 7 and X, Motion, Premiere Pro and After Effects and contains four filters: Bleach Bypass, Detail Preserve Contrast, Hyper Contrast, and Luma & Saturation Contrast. Because some lenses naturally produce a lower contrast image due to the way light diffuses through the lens elements, adding post-production contrast effects is a great way to increase visual impact.

Boston, Massachusetts - Noise Industries, developer of visual effects tools for the post-production and broadcast markets, recently announced the availability of Nattress Contrast effects. The effects pack is compatible with Final Cut Pro 7 and X, Motion, Premiere Pro and After Effects and contains four filters: Bleach Bypass, Detail Preserve Contrast, Hyper Contrast, and Luma and Saturation Contrast. Because some lenses naturally produce a lower contrast image due to the way light diffuses through the lens elements, adding post-production contrast effects is a great way to increase visual impact and make footage pop. With Nattress Contrast effects, editors can use edge-dependent contrast masking to preserves edges and maintain detail. The filter suite gives users independent control of luma and saturation contrast as well as the ability to digitally recreate the high-contrast film processing Bleach Bypass effect. Nattress Contrast is available now through FxFactory for just 49 USD.

Nattress Contrast Filters Include:

Bleach Bypass produces the high contrast film processing look of the same name. The result is a black and white image imposed over the color image. This effect increases contrast and graininess, while reducing saturation.

Detail Preserve Contrast divides the image into two regions: high detail and low (coarse) detail. Each region has its own contrast control. This filter can be used to create a greater separation between the subject and background.

Hyper Contrast uses edge dependent contrast masking to preserve the integrity of edges, enabling greater contrast adjustments without ruining details of the image. An S-Gamma option adds a film-like gamma curve to mimic the contrast response of film stock.

Luma and Saturation Contrast enables editors to increase or decrease the contrast levels of the luma and saturation independently. This filter is very useful when a simple contrast causes the saturation levels to bloom too much.

About Nattress Productions and Founder Graeme Nattress
Nattress Productions was founded by Graeme Nattress in 2004. Graeme, who is originally from England, makes his home in Ontario, Canada, where he uses his mathematical training and unique insights to program creative solutions for image processing. Graeme also applies his knowledge of color science, image manipulation, compression and digital video to the development of the RED Digital Cinema camera systems.

Murrumbateman, Australia - Slap Happy Larry, an independent app publishing team in Australia, today announces their second storybook app for iPad.

Midnight Feast is a modern tale with a painterly art style designed to make best use of the iPad's retina display. Forty-four pages of story encourage readers age 9 and above to consider themes of drought, food insecurity, and inequality. Author-illustrator Lynley Stace wrote this darker-than-average picture book to be enjoyed on several levels, with comprehension commensurate with age.

Along with their first storybook app, The Artifacts (2011), Midnight Feast emulates a traditional book with user-initiated page turns, while at the same time making use of new technologies. Non-signposted interactive hotspots are designed to encourage self-paced, exploratory reading and visual literacy. Interactions exist to further the plot, reveal character and support themes. Supernatural interactions can be de-activated via the options page.

Close reading notes for adult co-readers and teachers are available for free on Slap Happy Larry's website, and can be accessed from inside the app.

Midnight Feast is an international collaboration. Lynley Stace (writer/illustrator) is an Australian resident from New Zealand. The app was coded and optimised by Australian senior programmer, Daniel Hare. The main story is narrated by American Matthias Bossi. An original soundtrack was composed by New Zealand musician and composer Chris Hurn.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 262 MB

App Availability and Pricing
Midnight Feast 1.0 app for iPad is available in the app store for $3.99 and 2.49 Euro.
