    Fans of Adobe Photoshop rejoice! Have you been waiting for a way to whip out your iPhone or iPod touch and be able to juxtapose Arnold Schwarzenegger's head onto Pamela Anderson's body? Your wait is over -- Juxtaposer (click opens iTunes) is now available in the App Store.This $2.99 app is a lot of fun, as well as one of the best-executed compositing tools for a mobile device that I've ever seen. Features include: Unlimited undo, so no mistake or accidental brushstroke is permanent. Hard or soft brushes to create sharp or blurred edges. Smooth blends between images with transparent brushes. Red mask mode lets you accurately isolate part of one image without being distracted by the second image in the background. Translucent mode makes it easy to align your images precisely. The stamp tool lets you add multiple copies of your cut-out to your composite. Work in portrait or landscape orientation; optionally have images auto-rotate.
