The pace here at Picnik World HQ is never exactly slow, but 2008 is shaping up to be a record breaker. Not only did we just celebrate our biggest traffic day ever this past weekend, Team Picnik is also up to all sorts of terribly exciting new projects. Things we’ve wanted to add to Picnik for a very, very long time.

First up: a lot of performance work. We’re pleased to say Picnik now works even better for those few of you without nitrogen-cooled, eight-core monoliths, and those fewer of you on (gasp!) dialup. What else are we working on? We can’t tell you. It’s super secret. But it’s coming. Soon.

And in case this doesn’t quite feel warp speed enough, we’re proud to present: Focal Zoom! One of our favorite effects so far, if done right, Focal Zoom will actually make you dizzy. Note: applying this filter multiple times may very well lead to Ludicrous Speed. You’ve been warned.

Stay tuned as February starts to unwind. There’s lots to come.
