Photosharing - comparing Flickr, Photobucket and Zooomr

chart

How do you do decide which photosharing site to go with? If free is your criteria, there are certainly many options to choose from. Most free photo sharing sites are ad supported and come with a certain GB capacity limit. If you upgrade to a pro account, which can run anywhere from $20-$25 per year, there are typically no limits and no advertisements.

We took a look at the most popular photosharing sites' features and did a comparison to help you decide which photo site is best suited for your needs. We compared Flickr, Photobucket and Zooomr and then test drove each of the sites to see how well they did. Check out our unscientific findings after the jump.

Photobucket gets image editing features thanks to FotoFlexer

Photobucket + Fotoflexer
Photobucket, a popular image-hosting site, will get basic image-editing features (resizing, cropping, coloring, rotating, etc.) thanks to FotoFlexer, an in-browser, web-based picture editor.

For those who use both services, this is probably unsurprising as FotoFlexer already lets users save their edited pictures to their Photobucket accounts -- as well as any Facebook, Myspace, Yahoo Flickr, and Google Picasa accounts that they know the usernames and passwords to.

Well, at least this saves Photobucket users the hassle of logging into a separate site to do a little basic editing, which comes to a total of 48 seconds saved per photo edited according to our highly (un)scientific calculations.

Picnik offers premium image editing features for free

Picnik Premium v. FreeOnline image editor Picnik has always offered two tiers of service. Free users could access most of the popular image editing tools, while paid subscribers got a few extra bells and whistles and access to early beta features. But up until this week, there were no ads on the site whether you paid for an annual subscription or not.

Yesterday, Picnik decided to take all of the editing tools that had been available only to Premium members and offer them for free. This makes Picnik one of the most advanced free photo editors around, and puts the company in a good position to compete with FotoFlexer and the upcoming Adobe Photoshop Express.

But Picnik isn't getting rid of paid memberships altogether. You an still shell out $25 per year to get early access to new features, the ability to edit in a full screen mode, and an ad-free interface.

FotoFlexer: Another free, high quality online photo editor

FotoFlexer
If there's one thing we love more than an image editing application with a ton of features, it's an image editing application with a ton of features that are incredibly easy to use. And FotoFlexer seriously fits the bill. Much like Picnik, Splashup, and PikiFX, FotoFlexer is an online image editor.

You can either create an account or simply upload an image to start using FotoFlexer. You can also edit live images from your webcam or import an image from Photobucket, Facebook, Flickr, MySpace, or Picasa.

The editing application is incredibly easy to use. You can perform a ton of advanced transformations with a simple mouse click. For example, we clicked the "cartoon" button to make the image above. You can also turn any image into a blueprint, Andy Warhol-like pop art image, or make your picture look like an old black and white photo.

There are also more practical tools for eliminating red-eye, reducing blemishes or wrinkles, cropping, resizing, rotating, cutting and pasting your images. If you know what you're doing, you can also add layers to your images, much as you would with PhotoShop or GIMP.
