Flickr to let you edit photos using Picnik

A few months ago we got a chance to talk with Picnik co-founder Mike Harrington (with an H) about the online photo editing application. He mentioned that the company was working out deals to place an “edit that picture with Picnik” button to online image websites. Now Techcrunch’s Mike Arrington (without an A) reports that Picnik has landed one heck of a deal: Flickr will be adding Picnik integration soon.

Picnik already lets users import pictures from Flickr. But Flickr currently has a much, much larger user base

than Picnik. The deal will give Flickr users the ability to do some advanced photo editing, while it will give Picnik a huge publicity boost.

Picnik comes in two flavors. There’s a free version with a limited feature set (although you can still do all the basics like cropping, resizing, and applying many digital effects), and a subscription version that will set you back $25 a year.
