The Force Awakens an all new Orientation for Instagram

You are no longer confined to the square format for Instagram images. With the latest update users can now post in portrait and landscape orientations. To show off these new options the official Star Wars Instagram account has posted a teaser for The Force Awakens. It is pretty cool. I am looking forward to this movie.

BURBANK, CALIF. (August 27, 2015) – Today, Instagram announced that – in addition to square posts – you can now share photos and videos in both portrait and landscape orientation on their platform. With this update, Instagram users can upload widescreen video which will be more cinematic than ever.

This morning, @StarWars released an exclusive look at their upcoming film, The Force Awakens, using Instagram’s new landscape orientation. As part of this collaboration, Star Wars: The Force Awakens is the very first video content to be showcased in this new format for the Instagram community.

Pop Fizz Coloring Page


Photo-A-Day #3796

While looking for something to photograph for my whole #SuperChargersSunday countdown I remembered that I found as many coloring pages for Skylanders as possible online. I occasionally color them in when I have a little downtime. I love to color and it made sense that I’d color a Skylanders image. It also looks like I’ve done this in the past with the same character. I like Pop Fizz and colored him in back on the Skylanders Swap Force Release in 2013.

So far I’ve found about 67 different Skylanders coloring pages that have characters from all the released games. I haven’t searched in a while, there may be more of them now. If I have time I’ll get to coloring more of these pages in the next 20 days.
