Show off your pictures with KD Collage Free

If you love the photo booth but hate shelling out cash, you need a collage app. KD Collage Free combines your smartphone's photos into dozens of different layouts with fun borders and backgrounds. It gives you more options than you'll probably ever use, which is a positive, not a negative.

Though this is the free version, the only things that seem to be different from the $1.50 pro version are ads and the slightly lower resolution. That means every feature KD Collage has to offer is here for you. It offers up dozens of different frames, borders, … Read more

Locate similar images -- sort of -- with Similar Picture Find

Fortunately, there are lots of programs designed to help you identify and delete duplicates, freeing up valuable hard-drive space.

You probably shouldn't bother with Cute Puppy Clock

We like puppies, and we were prepared to release our inner 12-year-old girl upon downloading Cute Puppy Clock. Unfortunately, though, our plans to squeal and giggle fell flat. Although the program is in fact a clock that involves cute puppies, it has drawbacks that make it hard to recommend, even for puppy-lovers.

If you're an astronomy nerd you likely already know about the Astronomy Picture of the Day, a Web page run by NASA that displays a different astronomy-related image with a brief explanation every day. APOD Wallpaper places the picture of the day on your desktop and automatically updates it daily, making sure that you don't miss out on any space-related geekery.

The program appears as an icon in the system tray once it's opened, and clicking on it gives access to a menu with a handful of settings. You can set whether the image will be stretched, … Read more

It may not be the best option for everyone, but those who are interested in file splitting should find that it meets their needs just fine.

The program's interface is attractive and easy to navigate, with its two major features--splitting and merging--arranged in separate … Read more
