If you are a photography enthusiast, who also wants to earn some cash selling the clicked pictures, this App is a near perfect one. The reason why I am calling it a near perfect is because though it has a section for contest participation, there was no contest listed when I visited the section.

Similarly, it comes with an Assignment section where there was only one assignment that too from the US, and I presume that there is lack of awareness about the app in the media world (typically journalists would buy these images and videos) and therefore not much action is listed here and might be that not much buyer will also come.

However, it is worth trying. Moreover, as more and more people start trying the service, it will be compelling for image buyers to go looking for it on Fizwoz. The app works on all the major platforms including Android, iOS, Symbian, and Blackberry.

Interface

The user interface of the app is fairly straight forward: you have a section to participate in the contest, and as there were no contest listed at the time we checked the app we do not know what follows. However as is the case with the ‘sell’ section, it would (we presume) ask you to upload images, which will open your phones gallery, select the image. Select the relevant section (celebrity, Fun, Sports, Environment, breaking news etc) and then finally put in the desired caption to describe the picture.

The app also needs you to create an account for which one just need an email id which is necessary for the app to send you emails and also to identify you. The financial details will be needed when you have to receive the payments which is done through Paypal.

There is a My Fizwoz section where you can see your upload images, its price, bids so far etc. In a nutshell, it is your account on Fizwoz. You can also change your details or the photographs details like its caption.

Verdict

Though the app does not have any contests and just one assignment, but it is worth trying as it is free. It is very easy to use and to upload pictures and since it gives even amateurs an opportunity to sell their work that too very easily. We will have to tell you later how many people actual buy images through this app. Meanwhile, to reiterate again there is no harm in trying.

Go Launcher EX is an App for home screen replacement, which replaces the native launcher of the Android phone including the original Froyo, Gingerbread Android launchers, HTC’s Sense and Motoblur. The app is available free of cost and is meant to provide lots of customisation options and themes for the home screen of the Android smartphones. Users also have the option to download GoWidgets, including Message GOWidget, Contacts GOWidget and Calendar GOWidget.

The only problem with the Go Launcher EX is the widgets themselves are not themeable. So even if the users have their favourite theme installed, chances are the colour scheme of the widgets (such as clocks or calendar on the home screen) may not work with it since they look exactly the same. At the same time, the look of icons can be changed as per the users’ need. There are some phones which have some limit on the number of home screens they can have, but the installation of Go Launcher EX removes that limitation.

There also comes a dock on-the-screen feature which can be scrolled by the users to access the shortcuts of up to 15 apps. There are other aspects of the app which can be customised as well including the status bar, hiding icon labels, increasing the grid size etc.

The app Go Launcher EX gives the users the feeling of being in control of their Android experience &#151 a big reason why such apps are popular among the Android smartphone users.

The app allows the users to back up their configurations which make them feel free to tinker with the home screen, and if they don’t like it, they can always go back to the earlier backed up home screen. In the beginning, the app started with a small collection of themes which has grown big now and there is a virtual flood in the market with numerous themes, of course of different qualities and many cost you some bucks as well.
