While preparing for one of the presentations I'm doing on Sunday at the PETE&C precon, I spent some time looking through all the different online image editing sites and discovered Picnik. It was going to be the "Best Web2.0 site you probably haven't heard of yet". Can't very well say that now that you've blogged about it :) In all seriousness, it's definitely one of the better sites out there and really demonstrates how far 'Office 2.0' applications have come. For most everyday applications, I'd actually say that this is BETTER than Photoshop. A) I don't have to download my images to the desktop in order to edit them. B) I don't have to load up some bloated program that's going to eat all my RAM. C) I don't have to leave my browser, which is essentially my true workspace nowadays. D) It just feels smooth and quick. Don't get me wrong, there are still plenty of reasons not to delete Photoshop from the hard drive, but basic editing it's overkill.

Picnik is an online photo editing program which does many of the basic tasksquickly and easily. For everyday jobs like cropping and resizing it’s a great tool and, when I tried it, took no more time than it would have taken to load up a graphics program. Well worth trying.

I first saw Picnik at Tim Lauer’s site, but it didn’t register until Will Richardson posted about it today. Picnik is a “Flashy” type online app that covers the basics like resizing, color touchups, cropping, and saving. It’s real power comes from it’s tight integration with your Flickr photos. Just point it to your account and now you have instant editing of your Flickr photo sets. In addition to feeding it your Flickr photos, you can point it to your computer’s hard drive, a web site, or even your webcam. I’m starting to agree with Will. It’s time to start throwing away all that software I am paying for [...] [...] Sometimes I need to see things twice before they get my attention.
