App Stacking

Ever wonder how mobile photographers create such interesting and creative art? Chances are they're app stacking (using multiple apps).

This tutorial and story featured in the App Whisperer shows how the photographer used four apps (Hipstamatic, Diptic, Magic Hour and Scratch Cam) to transform two individual photos into a unified and beautiful image.

Do you app stack? If so, what are your go-to apps?

Diptic Pro Tip #3: Starting Over

Sometimes you need a fresh start. You may want a completely blank canvas or simply to remove a thing or two. We've got your back on this one, and starting over in Diptic couldn't be easier.

Just give your device a quick shake to prompt a message that asks which settings you would like to clear. Check them all to clear all settings, or individually select which items you would like to reset. Note: You can shake to clear on every screen except Layout Selection.

Have you ever seen a Diptic like this? It appears as though the images are "coming out" of the frames, and it looks pretty awesome. Awesome? Yes. Difficult to achieve? No! Follow these six steps and you'll impress your friends with your mobile photography skills in no time.

1. Create a Diptic and import the same photo into two frames, creating a Split Diptic. Line the images up so they look like one image separated by the frame line. Export and save it to your device.Diptic Pro Tip #2: Breaking the Frame

2. Open a photo-blending app (we use our app Layover, which costs $.99 in the iTunes Store) and import the original photo into the first layer.Diptic Pro Tip #2: Breaking the Frame

3. Import the Split Diptic into the second layer.Diptic Pro Tip #2: Breaking the Frame

4. From the Split Diptic layer, use the Mask feature and erase part of the white frame that separates the two pictures, letting the first layer show through. Diptic Pro Tip #2: Breaking the Frame
