How to Use Special Effects on a Mac iSight Camera

Open iChat and start the video camera. You can do this by clicking on the camera icon next to your name or selecting PREVIEW VIDEO from the VIDEO drop down menu. Once you have started the camera, select SHOW EFFECTS from the VIDEO menu.
From the special effects toolbox simply select the effect you want to see displayed in the video preview window. Notice the ORIGINAL view is always present in the center of the selections so you can easily flip back to the normal camera view.
Scroll through the effects pages using the scroll keys. The original is always in the center. There are six pages of effects, so take your time and experiment with all of the different ones. Keep in mind that flipping through the effects can be irritating to the people you are chatting with; you have to be in a playful mood.
There are also video effects. The roller coaster and fish tank are my favorites. Notice that your image will be in the center of the video effect and the video will run behind your image. Your chat members may see you on a roller coaster or in front of Yosemite Falls. Kids seem to love the video effects, although I am not sure how the grandparents may feel about them.
You can also add your own backgrounds from image files. Simply select an image file and you will see your camera image in front of the image background. This actually has a practical use for trainers and business. For example, you could put your company logo tiled behind you, which would give the look and feel of being at a press conference. The special effects are a fun way to add a little pizazz to a business conference or to just get a little wacky when chatting with family and friends.

How to Add Appulous to Cydia

Turn on the iOS device that Installous will be installed on. To turn on the device, press the 'Sleep' button for several seconds.
Locate the Cydia icon and tap on it. If there is no icon for Cydia on the device, check with the documentation that came with the software package used to jailbreak the device. Some early jailbreak methods used different third-party application stores instead of Cydia. Rock Your App Store was the primary alternative to Cydia, but the two app stores have since merged. If Cydia is not present, and you are unable to install it, your device may need to be re-jailbroken using a newer method in order to proceed. It may also be possible to install Cydia from within the Rock Your Phone App store if that app store is available on the device.
Tap on the 'Manage' tab on the bottom of the Cydia application.
Tap the blue button marked 'Edit' in the upper right hand corner of the screen.
Tap the 'Add' button in the upper left corner of the screen.
Enter 'cydia.hackulo.us' in the text entry form and tap the 'Add Source' button.
Wait while Cydia verifies the source. When it is finished, click the large blue 'Return to Cydia' button.
