Thisissand vs Light Creations

Thisissand is an app for making and sharing pictures out of sand. Watch and listen to the sand piling into beautiful layers of sand on the bottom of your screen and get relaxed during the slow and therapeutic process. Once finished, share your creation and become a part of the community! • Free to download and free to play • Does not display ads • Offers you to sign-up, but does not require you to • Offers you to purchase a Toolkit of special features, but does not require you to - - - - - - - - - - Thisissand was created in 2008 as a website. It was a school project of a few art students, and to a surprise for the creators it attracted lots of visitors for years to come. In 2012 Thisissand was developed into an app and is still run by an original founder. Thisissand offers different kinds of tools for choosing the sand color. Originally and still at the moment on Thisissand website, only the essential Color Palette tool is available. For the app, we have developed a few special kinds of tools which we offer in the Toolkit in-app purchase. Just like on the website, the special tools are not at all necessary to enjoy the app, but they're pretty cool and we're happy and thankful for your support if you're willing to try them out! COLOR PALETTE: Use Color Palette to choose specific colors from a vast swatch of colors. You may choose a solid color, or multiple colors to variate between. Use the intensity slider to adjust how fast the colors change. You may also use the randomize button to get surprising color combos. COLOR SHIFTER: Color Shifter continuously changes the sand color subtly or dramatically depending on the intensity slider adjustment. Color Shifter often produces rainbow like hues. To set the initial Color Shifter color, choose a color with Color Palette and then select the Color Shifter tool. COLOR PICKER: With Color Picker, you may pick the sand color from around you using your device camera. It takes a little practice to point your camera and draw at the same time, but in return you get truly unique colors. Try adjusting the color change intensity low in the beginning to keep things under control! PHOTO SAND: Want to try making a sand version of one of your photos? Photo Sand picks the sand color directly from the photo you've chosen from your camera roll. Try it out and learn the tricks to make abstract and/or photorealistic representations! MY COLORS: Save your favorite colors in My Colors and access them quickly by long pressing the color button on the sand canvas. Try saving colors from around with Color Picker! - - - - - - - - - - We highly value your feedback and questions.

Light Creations allows you to create amazing light sculptures and structures. You provide the seed for the creation by drawing an arbitrary line, e.g., straight, curved, or long and winded, and enjoy how Light Creations transforms this seed into a dynamic piece of 3D art. Accelerate the animation by humming, singing or playing music and dive deep into a relaxing journey through a world of light. Observe the mesmerizing dynamics of the evolving art and create screenshots with ease just by tapping an icon. The screenshots are conveniently saved into your photo album for further processing and sharing. Light Creations provides five themes, each transforming the initial seed in a different way: Galaxy - Creates light sculptures built out of many light particles. Light Ocean - Creates light sculptures above an ocean of light. Centered Lines - Creates symmetrical light structures. Warped Lines - Creates a work of art where the initial seed is warped in space resulting in fractal like creations. MultiDraw - The initial line is mirrored several times and warped in space already while drawing. Tip: use the pinch gesture to emphasize the amazing micro and macro structures. - Universal App for iPad, iPhone, iPod. - Retina Display support. - There are no ads or in-app purchases in Light Creations.
