I love Instagram as much as the next fool – as someone who’s been editing images on photoshop for years, I’m kind of excited that these one-click filters are acceptable styles now. I also love the ease of posting to my social channels from mobile devices.
However, I spend a lot more time on my desktop than off these days. And I’m a PC, so I’m still excluded from lots of fun Apple apps. What I want(ed) is a similar way to edit and publish photos from my desktop – and OMG I found it.
On top of the quick-and-dirty filters, OMG also offers borders, which I happen to personally like better than regular filters (and are not easy to achieve in photoshop).

You’ll have to save a copy of your filtered image in order to use it anywhere since it doesn’t have social sharing options. But, honestly, I think that’s a better way to go anyway since then it’s not hosted on their site.
Give it a try, let me know what you think!
