Flickr photo editing now accessible

by Jerome Locson on December 5th, 2007

Flickr now offers online photo editing after months ago of its initial news release. Flickr partnered with Picnik, an online tool which provides powerful photo editing capabilities. According to Flickr’s blog:

Picnik has been providing online photo editing for a while now. As soon as we saw it, we knew that there was huge potential for us to join together. Rather than Flickr diverting from our speciality to enter a realm we had no (particular) expertise in, the thought of a partnership seemed much more sensible.

The Picnik/Flickr collaboration works similarly to other 3rd party services who’ve built additional tools on top of the Flickr API: You’ll need to pass through the step of giving the Picnik service permission to edit and save your photos… It’s a little bit like you’re “installing” Picnik on your Flickr account, but with nothing to download.
