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.

Flickr gets Picnik photo editing power


Flickr gets Picnik photo editing power

Sure, Flickr is a great place to find and share images. But wouldn't it be nice if you could also edit those images online? Now you can. OK, you've been able to for a long time, using online photo editing sites like Picnik and SnipShot. But now Flickr and Picnik have added an "edit photo" button to that makes the process pretty darn easy.

We first heard that Flickr was partnering with Picnik back in October. At the time, we half suspected that all you'd see is an "edit with Picnik" button on each photo that would let you load up an image on Picnik's site. But the service that launched today is far cooler than that. You can access Picnik's powerful photo imaging interface without leaving Flickr at all.

That means you can crop, resize, adjust exposure, contract, color saturation and other aspects of your images with just a few clicks. You can also apply effects like converting color images to black and white. if you have a Picnik Premium account, you can access some additional effects like Infrared, Night Vision, Tint, and Invert.

In order to edit a photo, you'll need to login to your account and select an image you've uploaded. You'll should see an "edit photo" button in the toolbar above your picture. For now it doesn't look like there's any way to edit images uploaded by other users.

Flickr to let you edit photos using Picnik

Picnik
A few months ago we got a chance to talk with Picnik co-founder Mike Harrington (with an H) about the online photo editing application. He mentioned that the company was working out deals to place an "edit this picture with Picnik" button to online image websites. Now Techcrunch's Mike Arrington (without an H) reports that Picnik has landed one heck of a deal: Flickr will be adding Picnik integration soon.

Picnik already lets users import pictures from Flickr. But Flickr currently has a much, much larger user base than Picnik. The deal will give Flickr users the ability to do some advanced photo editing, while it will give Picnik a huge publicity boost.

Picnik comes in two flavors. There's a free version with a limited feature set (although you can still do all the basics like cropping, resizing, and applying many digital effects), and a subscription version that will set you back $25 a year.
