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.

Bring Your Instagrams to Life with Stickygram

Stickygram

I received gift codes to try out all of the products from Stickygram. Opinions are 100% my own.

I take photos and post them to Instagram all the time. They go up and enter the internet and are gone. Not so much anymore. With Stickygram you can take those Instagram photos and create magnets, phone cases for iPhones (4/4S & 5/5S) and Samsung (S3, S4), and iPad (2,3,4) covers.

Magnets ($14.99 for 9) – Magnets come in sets of 9. They are full color sheets and in my opinions the best product from Stickygram. The magnets come out looking great and are the perfect size for printing.

Phone cases ($34.99) – I ordered an iPhone 4S case. The printing on the case was nice, I went with three small images centered on the back but there are tons of options. The case fit snugly on my iPhone. It is small and thin. I think that for the money this could have been a bit thicker and more sturdy. As someone who tries lots of cases on his phone I was afraid of breaking this case.

iPad Cover ($44.99) – We purchased an iPad Air before I got the iPad cover through Stickygram. The iPad Air is smaller than the iPad 2,3,4 so the cover didn’t fit that quite right. The look of the cover was very nice and it does have the magnetic hinge. I would have to try it on an iPad 2,3 or 4 to get he full experience but I did make it work for a while on the iPad Air.
