FlauntR: Photo-Editing Integrated With Social Media

by Veena

FlauntR is a software application for photo editing with unlimited photo storage, integration with all the popular social networks, and a built in photo finishing service. It began its service in September 2007 and was acquired by Switzerland-based FotoDesk in June 2008.

FlauntR divides its image editing task into 6 primary segments – stylR, textR, editR, mobilR, profilR and picasR. The site offers several tools for editing (editR), styling photos (stylR), adding text to photos (textR), creating social networking profile pictures (profilR), and mobile photo experiences (mobilR). With flauntR users can create widgets and beautiful slideshows as well as share photos to social networking sites. flauntR integrates with other photo services like Flickr, Picasa, Bebo, and Facebook photos so you can pull photos in directly. Additionally, flauntR offers a little Picasso artistic flair to any photo (picasR).

flauntR is now fully integrated with MySpace. So all the MySpace users can now enjoy flauntR from their myspace pages. And this means all the zappy little flauntR features can be used to boost your myspace image speeds.

FlauntR cannot be compared with Photoshop as the former is an online application and cannot provide all the sophisticated tools like the latter. But FlauntR still beats the other online imaging applications because of the following advantages:

1. It is the most powerful image editing tool available online
2. Free of cost and available to the public
3. Highest loading speed
4. It’s very user-friendly
5. Vast collection of effects (in thousands)

FotoDesk has come up with social network

Integration and printing for flauntR. Users can now sign in to social networks and storage services to edit and print photos

without leaving the flauntR photo suite. flauntR’s transparent printing already supports popular social networks and photo storage services, including Facebook, Picasa, Flickr, MySpace, Orkut, hi5, Windows Live Spaces, WordPress, and Bebo.

flauntR’s integration of printing and social networks bridges the gap between various online photo repositories and printing. With the new integrations in place, FotoDesk now provides image processing, sharing, archiving, and printing as a single, seamless service through flauntR. Users can edit and print photos as fine art, posters, canvas, and greeting cards in six different paper types. This relieves the user from having to manage multiple identities and platforms for various photo-related tasks.
