Second Ever Flickr Picnikers Award Winners Announced! / Jul 1st

Congratulations to Flickr Picnikers Award Winner Grahamish, dany_xoxo, and gumybearz for winning coveted 1-year Picnik Premium gift certificates in a 3-way tie! As Brenda, our Community Liaison in Charge of Flickr Operations, pointed out in announcing the winners, votes were spread around 54 entries so obviously there’s a lot of potential for the HDR-ish tool, the subject of this month’s contest, so well done all you who voted!

Grahamish: * dany_xoxo: tulips gumybearz: eiffel-tower-dusk

Meanwhile, a new month means a new contest, so start buffing up your typography skills because July’s theme is “Best Use of Text“!

In Sync / Jul 1st

Syncplicity logoPicnik has come another step closer to our goal of bringing easy and fun photo editing awesomeness to everybody on any computer with our new integration with Syncplicity. A company truly after our own heart, Syncplicity seeks to bring easy and fun everything to everybody on any computer, including documents, spreadsheets, and presentations without anyone having to lug home any of that heavy, cumbersome boxed software, and Picnik is providing all the photo-editing awesomeness in that mix!

If you have Syncplicity installed on your computer, you can right-click any document and choose the “edit in Picnik” option, and when you save after applying all the Picnik awesomeness you want to your photo, it saves to your computer and your Syncplicity to keep everything synced! Simply!

We’d like to thank Syncplicity for including us in their open platform, and we’d like to welcome Syncplicity to our merry band of API partners!
