Sketches updated to 1.5
One of the first applications I used and enjoyed on my iPhone, Sketches, has updated to version 1.5. New in this version is the ability to change the alpha settings for colors (so you can change the opacity of the drawings you make on photos you take), and an edit mode for the corkboard view, to rearrange your drawings with. Additionally, they've moved uploaded photos off of a third-party server and onto their own page, so (for right now, anyway) no ads to get in the way. Not new in this app: a quality, fun, and surprisingly robust photo and image editor designed for the iPhone.We've heard from the devs that there is a version 2 on the way as well, and both this version and that one are free to anyone who's purchased the app. But if you haven't picked it up yet, it is available for $4.99 over on the App Store, well worth it if you often take and share pictures with your iPhone.

I ordered a soundclip... and received a pogo stylus instead... and the pogo stylus was exceptionally fun/useful for use with Sketches!
I wouldn't be surprised if you could get a promotional code via Sketches through a splash screen ad one day.

I think you guys should change your name to TUIW. The unofficial iPhone Weblog. Thats 90% of your content anymore. Hey I like as much as the next guy, okay probably more than the next guy seeing how we are a 4 iPhone family, but the constant app reviews are getting very old.
What would you guys be talking about if the iPhone was never invented? Lets have more of that.

@ "What would you guys be talking about if the iPhone was never invented?"
They would not be talking about anything more than they are now. TUAW reports all the Apple news that exists. They also review iPhone apps. What would happen if they did not review apps? They would still be reporting all the Apple news that exists. It is not a case of, if they stopped reviewing apps, then more Apple news would magically be created in the world.
