Good morning all,

I know, I know, you’re thinking … what, ANOTHER free photo editing site? Well, yep. But this one is really special!

Today’s featured site comes to us by way of Cynthia Matzat who is a library media specialist at Branson Elementary School in Branson, MO. It’s called Flauntr.com and it’s the newest example I’ve seen in this genre (photo enhancement sites). It’s definitely worth a look!

Flauntr.com allows you to easily create professional-looking photos by adding frames and styles, cool effects, text, and even resize your pictures to be used on mobile phones or on social networking site profiles. The user interface is ridiculously simple:

Click, drag, drop, done. It’s the usual story. I really like how you can explore the site without signing up – that’s a great touch. The myriad effects can be applied with a click. I really like the magazine covers, they are easily the most realistic I’ve seen! Like the better services in this genre, you can link automatically to your Flickr, Picasa, Facebook or similar photo source, extending the usefulness of those applications. When you’re done creating your masterpiece, you can save them locally, share them online, or watch a slideshow. All with a few clicks and no specialized photo editing knowledge. Makes you wonder what professional graphic designers think about these free tools! Here’s a quick demo video that shows some of the possibilities:

Like, whoa! Hope this helps!
