MyBabyTree goes live

The App that let's you buy a tree

After a little wait and anticipation we're pleased to see that MyBabyTree has now gone live in the App store!

Working on behalf of EquinoxApps and in partnership with the World Wildlife Fund (Indonesia), this lovely little App allows you to get green and plant a tree in the Indonesian rain forest. Carbon credits? Bah, just buy this App and you'll be doing a whole world of good.

The fact is, we all like to make donations to worthwhile causes, and most (if not all) of us want to be environmentally friendly. It's good to give, but MyBabyTree gives something back in the form of a nice little App that allows you to keep track on the good deed you have done.

Here's the detail

"MyBabyTree is a hands-on application that allows you to buy and plant your very own baby tree in Rinjani National Park in Lombok, Indonesia. Your purchase of the app for £5.49 will pay for the seed, land, nursery, maintenance, protection and planting."

Go on, go and buy MyBabyTree and feel smug.

Photoshop Amusement

Here is a short post highlighting a site I came across that caused me to literally laugh out loud.

Now, I'm no photoshop expert (ask Andy), but some of the images on this site are just so obviously wrong you have to wonder how on earth they made it to print/web.

If you need a laugh then take 5 minutes out to look through some of these gems!

But here are a couple that I could not resist sharing (some as classic as the recent MS hash) - if you can't spot what's wrong with these then you get the job! :-

utopia solitaire update

Due to huge demand for our development and design services this year, our happy clients have monopolised pretty much all of our time. This has meant we simply haven't had the chance to get utopia solitaire finalised for launch. In some ways that's maybe been a good thing - we've re-visited it a little now, improved the UI and are (finally!) close to releasing it.

As you can see from the screenshots below, it's looking nice - and the utopia theme is optional! :-) You can choose from 100's of different combinations of card and table designs to create your own favourite look.

All things being equal (and assuming Apple's acceptance) utopia solitaire for iPhone and iPod touch will be available on the iPhone App Store this month! We're hoping to get it to Apple for review by 12th September.

utopia solitaire will run on 1st gen iPhones and iPod touches and above (unless things change over the next week). We don't want to limit it to later models only. You will require iPhone OS 3.0 though.
