Despite the fact that the list of online image editing services continues to get longer and longer, there is still one that has been sitting at the top of my list for quite a while – Picnik. We first wrote about Picnik back in April, and since then, it has managed to get better and better. If you’re a fan of Picnik and you’re a Firefox user, you’re going to love an extension that I recently came across which makes importing images into Picnik even easier.
To start, you’ll want to install the Picnik Firefox extension (download found here), and of course restart your browser. Once you’ve done this, right click on any image and notice the option that’s been added which says “Edit Image in Picnik.” There’s also an option to “Send Page to Picnik.” The “Send Page” option is great because you can essentially take a screenshot of any website and send it to Picnik for editing- either the visible page, or the full page. That means all it takes is two clicks before you’re editing a photo or web page from anywhere on the web. This extension is extremely handy and makes editing photos on your browser easy.
Now remember, Picnik offers all kinds of options for photo-editing like the capability to crop, rotate, resize, sharpen, or even remove red-eyes, so I think you’ll find it useful. And because it’s an online service, there’s nothing that has to be downloaded. To boot, it can be used on a Mac, a PC with Windows, or even Linux. Picnik has always been awesome, but this Firefox extension makes it even better!

I’ve tried many other apps like Picnick but in my opionion it’s still the best one… so far. I’m thinking to upgrade to premium. Good idea the guys at Picnik released a Firefox extension to help their fans
I like it. Works well with many options and connects with most of the photo websites too (for exporting)
One of the things that I loved the most about Picnic was the wide array of features it offered. Using it almost feels like a desktop app, and just like Michele I’m glad that an easy-to-use extension is available.
I remember reading a little while back that Flickr will probably be integrating this service into their photo site, but Picnic can already import images from popular photo sites as misterbillusa pointed out.
