i thought you PS ladies might get a kick out of this. it''s called Live Diamond Try On and here''s the app description:

How it Works
Browse for the perfect diamond from Red Box Diamonds, design a beautiful yellow gold or white metal ring around it, and then try the ring on “virtually” using a photo of your own hand taken with your iPhone camera. Lay the resulting image on the top of your hand and watch the jewelry sparkle at actual size!

It’s Fun and it’s FREE
Live Diamond Try On lets you shop for your dream diamond engagement ring anytime, anywhere. Do it alone, with that special someone, or while out with friends. See how different diamond shapes, styles, and of course sizes - up to 5 carats - look on your hand all for FREE. Go big. Bigger!

Get Real
Once you’ve found the most spectacular diamond ring for your hand, you can Locate a Jeweler near you right from the iPhone app to find out more information about the real thing!


i just downloaded it off of iTunes, and so far, it''s really fun to use! here are some screen shots:

pick out a setting in either yellow or white gold:

look at the profile shot and info on setting:

using a photo of your own hand (you can take a pic with the phone) or the provided hand pic, place the ring on and check out your new ring! unfortunately since the size of the ring picture stays stationary, you can only zoom in/out your hand pic to get the ring to "fit" your finger so, you're not really able to see a full hand shot. still, i think it's a fun app to use!

the shapes on the app are: round, pear, radiant, asscher, emerald, princess, trillion, heart, marquise, oval and cushion. the carat sizes range from .25 to 5, but they''re in various increments. i think it''s neat that the shapes are displayed at "actual" size depending on what carat size you choose.

i wish they had more settings available though since some of the styles seem repetitive, but hopefully they''ll add more for the update.

Hmmm.. maybe I SHOULD contact them... :D
 
Haha oh man!! Too funny. What a brilliant idea for an app.

They should have a "there's an app for that" spot that includes this! Too bad it's free. Well, not (too bad) for us
