You can use Liquid Face Lite to change images – new ones or ones you’ve already saved to your device – according to your own ideas.
The app comes with the option to twist images around and to alter the appearance of the photo’s subject.
In order to achieve this effect, press on the button and wipe your finger across the screen. It’s pretty exciting: the person’s facial contours become blurry and you can completely change the proportions of the picture or the actual face.
Giving someone a huge conk or super high forehead is a cinch. You can also insert cliparts: eyes, masks, sunglasses, ears, noses, mouths, beards, and hats come in lots of different shapes, sizes, and colors.
As soon as the cliparts you’ve chosen have been automatically added to the image and adjusted to the size of the face, you can move them to the exact position you want them.
If you like, you can use the app on your Facebook albums or friends in order to , uhm, “change” a few pics here and there.
My opinion: a nice way to kill time if ever you’re bored… provided you manage to persuade someone to let you “change” a photo of them!
Screen & Controls
Controls aren’t exactly complex, but it takes a (short) while to get the gist of Liquid Face Lite seeing as there aren’t any instructions.
If you want to make an image blurry all you need do is touch the round arrow in the display’s upper left corner.
If you want to rotate the image, tap on the button with two turning arrows on it.
There’s a small “game controller” in the upper right corner that suggests other games for you to download.
A second bar is located at the bottom of the display; use the arrow in the right corner in order to make this bar disappear if it’s bothering you. There’s a check symbol on the bar that allows you to save the images. Next to it you will find another button, this one has a mask on it and leads you to the clipart category. Adjusting cliparts to fit the size of an image isn’t all that easy. You can make them bigger or smaller using your fingers, but if the person on the picture is not super up-close or simply too small and you try to make cliparts smaller the results are often not perfect. The problem seems to be that the app can’t figure out whether you want to make things smaller or simply move them around.
There are two other buttons on the bar: a Pause button in the left corner which you use when you want to pause the app in order to avoid pressing any other buttons and accidentally making unwanted changes to your masterpiece.
Describing the second button is a little tricky: its inscribed with an image which I can’t identify, and when you tap on it the image blurs and looks as though it were printed on a big piece of cloth. If you then wipe your finger across the screen the picture moves as well, as though waves are rippling through it. Do you get what I mean? Try it out and see for yourself!
Speed & Stability
I had a lot of issues with both speed and stability with this app on my G1... again. Liquid Face Lite kept lagging and had to force close, which really began getting on my nerves after a while.
But experience has taught me that most of you won’t have to deal with similar problems.
Price/Performance Ratio
Liquid Face Lite can be downloaded for free from the Market. The full version comes with lots of extra perks such as a bigger selection of cliparts as well as better options for saving images and better ways of altering them. It costs US$ 1,98.
