Purikura on Photoshop vrs. on iPhone




(The picture on the left is edited with PrincessCam and the picture on the right is Photoshoped)

I have recently been seeing lots of posts about good apps to use on the iphone for purikura.
Thank you so much!! It's great to see other peoples reviews on products! I'm a teenage girl, I don't really have that much money to spend, so it's nice to see what other people think of different apps so I can buy just the ones that are really going to work for my purposes. 
My favorite purikura app at the moment is PrincessCam! I think it's adorable!
I think that it's really cool that there are so many purikura apps for the iPhone because it's good for on the go, it's a great detraction for the waiting room, and it's wonderful for people like me who don't have purikura near them! However, I've noticed that they can really decrease the quality of the picture. I think they're great for iPhone photos but when I take a picture with my good camera and then edit it on my mobile phone it often ends up really grainy compared to the original because it no longer has as many pixels as before.
In reading some of these posts, I saw a lot of people comment that photoshop is to hard or complected for them to do purikura on. I agree that photoshop is very difficult to understand at times, but I feel that the results of the quality of the pictures I do on photoshop are much better then any I do on my phone. You also have a lot more options on photoshop on what you can do with your picture!
I love the iPhone apps dearly but I love photoshop just a little more!

Pixar's BRAVE cultural differences in language

So I went to see Pixar's Brave a few days ago and it was AMAZING!!

Awwww... I want to be a Pixar animator when I grow up again, haha, I want to be so many things when I grow up, I don't know how I'm going to chose. Well, I guess I better start practicing!

I love love love Merida, she is my new favorite princess~

So, of coarse like any other fan, when I got home I immediately looked up all sorts of Brave stuff on youtube. 

One thing I thought was really interesting where the trailers. I found this interesting because in the English version of the move, the trailer indicates that the plot line is more about not being what others want you to be and the fight for freedom. 

However, the Japanese trailer was much more about the consequences of our actions. It also had a lot more to do with nature and magic and not angering nature. Another interesting thing is that in Japanese it seems that the name of the film is not actually "BRAVE" but "Merida and the Frightening Forest". This also relates to the fact that the Japanese trailer has much more to do with nature. I have attached the videos so you can see for yourself!

Japanese

What about other languages? Are they different too? I'd love to hear, so please comment~
