    not that I’m knocking a free app but after suffering through months of these I feel its time to mention there are literally hundreds of clones of this app idea if not thousands; they all do the same thing; the same way; it must be taught in some basic IOS programming class considering none of the apps generate a profit but everyone keeps doing them; I wonder when someone will finally make one that teaches you to draw. I would think it should be relatively straight forward, the app would take a picture of you for instance, and give say 10 lessons such as dimensions of humans (the old 1×2 etc etc) shading/lighting, features, outlines strokes whatever … yea a few more steps than a fake photo filter but at least it would be worth having/using.

    not much point in having a picture turn into a fake drawing everyone knows you didn’t draw. I donno, I guess good for fakers. Maybe the scammer/spamers flooding the forums will like this type of thing; spammers and scammers might actually love it; they can tell everyone they really drew the picture.

    haha ! i guess next up is a “match 3″ with a fake photo filter combination. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
