I had so much fun learning about sharing photos with PicsArt that I thought I would share some more for the Thing 10.
PicsArt is a highly rated, dependable app for the Kindle. I have created several projects and posted them to my Facebook page.
I see potential for this app to be useful in education and library promotion.
There are options such as color splash, borders, backgrounds, cropping and many more options. I have worked several hours and I still feel like I am barely scratching the surface of the power of this app.

Thing 9 - Taking and Editing Photos
The Kindle Fire that I own does not take pictures, so this Mobile Thing was a little more difficult to find for my Kindle.
I downloaded Color Splash, but just like many of the users who left the bad ratings the app crashed every time I tried to open up a photo.
All I could do is try to color in the little apple. Turns out it isn't so easy. Unless you have really little fingers or a stylus there is no way you would be able to get a nice clean border on your color. At least I couldn't on the apple. I don't think this app will be useful to me at all, personally or professionally.
Then, I installed PicsArt Photo Studio.
I was able to turn one of my favorite wedding photos into what looked like a pencil drawing. That was impressive.
Then, I connected my DropBox account to PicsArt. I was then able to access countless photos. I took some time to create a few collages. This would be useful for marketing or for creating family keepsakes. I also could upload the creations to Facebook.
This is a highly rated and functional app. I think this could be useful professionally and personally.

Thing 8 - Social Media Management tools
Today I downloaded FriendCaster for Facebook.
The reviews were not very good, so I didn't expect too much.
The first thing I liked was that I could change the color to green instead of blue!
I am not on Facebook very much, mostly because I don't want to take the time. But, I haven't seen an option to change color on the web version of Facebook.
I also like that when you tap the "friends" link, all your friends profile pictures show up in a grid. That format makes it easier to find my friends.
I watched a video and it seemed to work really well.
I think the simplicity and functionality will make FriendCaster useful to many KindleFire users.
