Fotowall

Fotowall 1.0 'RETRO' is done.

2017-07-09T13:37:00-07:00

New features till the end :D

This is the final release for Fotowall; after more than a million downloads (even excluding
the installs through Linux distros) and after having revolutionized the direct-manipulation
graphic-composition when it came out in 2007, it’s time for the last stretch of glory.

This release includes pre-built binaries for Linux (Ubuntu tested) and Windows (Win 10 tested).
For other versions of Linux the package will be available in your package manager.

Fun feature note: Ubuntu users with a WebCam will enjoy the still-unrivaled Live Camera Item,
with multi-views, live effects (perspective, reflections, mirroring, recoloring, blurring, …), which
is very eye-catching and still unmatched to this day by any other app 🥇 .

Fotowall “RETRO” 1.0 brings:

Picture cropping [requested by Rossana]
Exporters: vast improvements: high-quality PDF output, easy Printing
Wordcloud editor
Text: Color Triangle picker, and Shaking
Re-Arrange Contents
View perspective and rotation [requested by Nicolas Brisset]
Port to Qt 5 - Andy Sardina
OS/2 fixes - Elbert Pol
Traditional Chinese Translation - Estea Chen / Fantix King
Arnaud’s Undo/Redo system (not active yet)
Symbian and Mobile port (not that anyone uses it anymore :D)
… for a full list of changes, take a look at the
Github diff.

Of course this is an open source project, so it’s yours by definition. Take it
up, fork it, and change it if you don’t like how it is - or if you believe
there shall be life after v1.0 :D

Thanks for using and loving the APP - we received 2000 direct comments that you wrote using
the APP feedback system, and though we couldn’t reply to many, we really loved reading and
backing them up with code and sweat 😍

So long and thanks for all your Fotowalls!

1.0 and Collabs updates

2010-05-11T00:00:00-07:00

While Fotowall 1.0 is still cooking on git, with PDF exporting, easy printing and more features, I have to announce you that 2 (yes TWO) teams are working independently on improving Fotowall.

The first group is from the Brown University and they’re making it more, well.. ‘ physical’ :)
The second group is from a renewed Mexican University and they’re working on the User Experience with focus on Touch and Gestures.

I won’t spoil the surprise with more details, but … stay tuned! :D
