How to Use the Gradient Tools in Photogene For the iPad

The enhance menu has three different gradient tools to choose from: "Vignette", "Blur" and "Gray". Tapping on any of the options makes two concentric ovals and a submenu appear. The submenu allows you to adjust the radius of each of the ovals. You can also manually adjust the ovals by dragging them with your finger.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEOM-HgSTng

The "Vignette" option provides a black gradation between the ovals, the "Blur" a blurred gradation and the "Gray" a colorless gradation. Try experimenting with all three gradients.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEOM-HgSTng

You might also be able to find refurbished iPods at large, buyout retailers. These retailers often buy the overstock from large companies for very low prices, and in turn sell it to the publix at low cost.
