A clean private photo-sharing app for sharing photos among friends!

###Deploying to app stores

- In the IDE, open MyPicsy.pack from the project file explorer and click on Pack
- Click on Build
- Upload splash images, icons and signing profiles for each OS and choose OS from Android, iOS, Windows Phone and BB10 to build from
- Request a build

Happy snapping! :)
