You inspired me to try it myself. Here's what a 100 degree humid evening in inner coastal NC looks like.

OK, so I know the Theta+ app on phone or tablet is good for creating the tiny planets and all that... but is there a similar program that I can use on my computer? I'm really more comfortable sitting at my desk, looking at the larger screen and using the mouse, etc. I know people were making "tiny planets" before the Theta and Theta+ app came along. What did/do they use? I mean, I know I can upload the flattened image into Lightroom or Photoshop or whatever, but I'm talking about freezing the image of the tiny planet or mirror ball for sharing. Any ideas?

Has anyone tried running the Theta+ app under Blue Stacks on their PC?

You can create tiny planets using photoshop. Just search for it on youtube.

I haven't yet messed around with the tiny planet via Photoshop. I need to focus on taking more Theta shots. I'm so distracted with my DSLRs. :-P

Alright, I did take a look at the Photoshop planet maker, but it's not amazing. I think I'll just stick with emailing my Theta images to myself and editing them with the Theta+ app on my tablet. :-)

**robgski** · 07-31-2016, 05:50 PM

Still a cool camera, IMO, I dn't need it, but I really want it.

Trey45 · 07-31-2016, 06:07 PM

severalsnakes I'm really enjoying your theta images!

Thank you! It's definitely a lot of fun. I always have it with me, I just need to remember to get it out and use it. I'm almost always down for a selfie. ;-)
