Any-app-BUT-Hipstamatic Weekend Challenge!

March 1st, 2012
I know, I know. You saw another Hipstamatic Challenge, and you're thinking, "but I hate Hipstamatic/I have an Android/why are these challenges always for Hipstamatic/what about meeeeee??!"

Friends, if this sounds familiar, then this challenge is for YOU. :)

From now until Sunday (I can't be bothered to look up GMT links or whatnot, so just enter until I tell you to stop), take some amazeball pictures with any app BUT Hipstamatic. Android apps, Apple apps, heck, sneak in a random camera phone shot. I'd like to see some really cool shots - let's get creative and awesome on this one!

Any Hipstamatic pics will be disqualified and stuff.

Please tag your entry with not-hipsta-march. That will be the official method o' entry, although it would be fabulous if you shared your shots in this thread.

Then, on Monday, I'll pick a top 5. Or 6. Or something. We'll have 24-ish hours to vote and then we'll have a winner!

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

March 1st, 2012
Great challenge!
March 1st, 2012
I think I'm in for this!
March 1st, 2012
Let me wipe away my tears and I'll think about it.

HIPSTAMATIC RULES

@andycoleborn We should take only hipstamatic photos during those sad days
March 1st, 2012
@5unflow3r haha I agree.. flood the No HIPSTA thread ;-)
March 2nd, 2012
I am addicted to hipsta and I'm not ashamed @andycoleborn
March 2nd, 2012
@andycoleborn @5unflow3r Oh, now you two got jokes. ;) Think of how sad I am right now with no Hipsta and what-not. All I can do is live vicariously through the shots of others. :'(

Oh, and you could always blow up the Hipstamatic Challenge that is also running - that one doesn't seem to be getting a lot of love so far.

@5unflow3r same here... my 2nd album is pretty much hipsta shots... love the app and hardly use my iphone for anything else :-)
March 2nd, 2012
@andycoleborn Though it would be a good time to learn a new app, though I don't see how anyone can dislike Hipsta.
March 2nd, 2012
@5unflow3r There's 'other' apps???????????
March 2nd, 2012
@andycoleborn I've heard rumors
March 2nd, 2012
@5unflow3r @andycoleborn I used to have apps. Lots and lots of apps. Until I was liberated from my device. :'(
March 2nd, 2012
@beautifulthing Oh no! I am sorry to hear that! I would be crushed if I lost my apps and my device. I guess in honor of the memory of your device, I could try to go hipsta-less.
March 2nd, 2012
@beautifulthing sorry to hear somone liberated you ;-(
March 2nd, 2012
@andycoleborn @5unflow3r I had a shiny 4 and I was so happy. Now I has a 3G and can't do anything and of COURSE the week it happened the latest Hipsta lens came out and now I shall never have it again! And I can't upgrade until May. Also, #firstworldproblems.
March 2nd, 2012
From today: iPhone 4S. Used Gorillacam, mostly because you can make the whole screen the shutter thus making it easier for candid type stuff.
March 2nd, 2012
@beautifulthing I love my 4. May will be here soon!
March 2nd, 2012
From Camera Awesome. That is the app name, not some ego thing.
March 2nd, 2012
Um, I have android and you can do hipstamatic on Android. FXCamera and Retro Camera are both apps that can help with this. Plus, there are any number of places online to edit a photo with a hipstamatic filter.
March 2nd, 2012
I've used Retro Camera app on occasion @crickle1969
March 2nd, 2012
@crickle1969 Um, I was referring to the specific app Hipstamatic by Synthetic LLC. http://hipstamatic.com/the_app.html I know you can get similar effects with a multitude of other apps.

I took this one today, but the date and type of phone didn't show.
I used PhotoPad on an iPhone 3.
March 3rd, 2012
Really all of my pics will count since they are all from my phone...but this is one of today's:

@tamsg4 that's pretty adorable.
March 3rd, 2012
Shot with Grungetastic.

March 3rd, 2012
I've never used an app to 'modify' pics before... so this weekend I'm playing with Retro Camera by Urbian on my Android:
March 3rd, 2012
@leahmnash Thanks! :)
March 3rd, 2012
Like@deweb never used an app. I've got Retro Camera too but I tried Lomo Camera for Android first.
March 4th, 2012
The Promise

March 4th, 2012
Another Camera Awesome app photo
March 4th, 2012
Same Lomo app as yesterday but slightly different weather.
March 4th, 2012
Taken with CameraAwesome, just goofing around. This is a VERY loaded camera app, if you have an iPhone you should look into it :) And I think it's free too, but can't remember for sure.

Not too late? thank goodness for time zones
I love my Samsung Galaxy phone and this app is Lightbox and the filter is 'Ansel' (go Ansel!)
