Picturesque: I can easily make my images look Apple-y

I know Apple doesn’t own any sort of patent on this type of look, but they certainly are the biggest company around using it extensively. I’m talking about the angled and reflective-surface look that they often put on their product images and screenshots. You know, sorta like what you see above.

Anyway, I’ve been playing around with this application for Mac OS called Picturesque, and what it does is it takes any sort of image and applies these quick settings to it to give it certain features. Among these features are persepctive, reflection, shadow, curve (rounded corners), stroke (outline), and cropping. Picturesque makes it all incredibly easy by simply allowing you to drag-and-drop any image into the program and immediately churn out images similar to the one above.

I do a lot of random screenshotting on Doobybrain.com and I welcome the addition of this app to my collection. Plus, it’s kinda fun to fool around with when I’m really bored.
