A couple of months ago, Flickr announced<\/a> that it would be integrating Picnik’s online photo-editing tools into the site, and now it has happened — and I have to say it is pretty cool. I’m not a professional photographer by any means, and not even semi-pro, but I do like to take pictures and I like to edit them to try and make them look as good as possible. And I’m a big user of Flickr (my photostream is here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

I’ve used Photoshop and Photoshop Elements, and I’ve used The Gimp on Linux and a bunch of other programs, and for big changes they are still the best. If all you want to do is crop and lighten and sharpen, however — which for the vast majority of photos is all I really want — then an online tool like Picnik works just fine. <\/p>\n

So far I’ve tried it out on a few pictures and it worked great, although saving the photo after I was done took awhile (as MG Siegler also notes<\/a> at ParisLemon). Still, a nice addition to Flickr’s tools. Update:<\/b> Someone from Box.net emailed me to let me know that Picnik is also integrated with their online storage solution, so you can edit any photos<\/a> that are stored on Box as well.<\/p>\n
