Users can access and edit images right from your blog
flauntR.com offers a host of cool photo editing tools. I’m am not a master photo editor, but I do know a quality, simple to use photo editor when I see one.
flauntR comes with thousands of possibilities for your photo editing needs. Image effects, frames, color options and even flickr integration.
Register with flauntR for even more options, including storage with flauntR, download and professional printing options.
Widgets
flauntR also has an array of photo widgets. Three types (Lightbox, Iframe and Linkbacks These widgets are not for displaying images. They are to allow your readers to edit images. Import them, export them, crop them, frame them and just about anything else you can imagine.
Now you are probably asking why your readers would want to edit images while reading your blog. This is a similar question that I asked myself.
Here’s the answer.
You can set up one of the flauntR widgets to load with specific images that are located on your site. This would then allow your readers to participate in your “New Photo Contest”. Now you are asking “why do I want to have a photo contest?”
Another answer.
Contests seem to be all the rage on blogs these days. These contests are designed to bring in new readers and potential RSS subscribers, in the hopes of boosting traffic and ultimately improve revenue.
For example:
thethinkingblog.com is holding a contest from now until December 20th (winner will be announced Dec. 25th) Up for grabs is a really cool and rugged Ruff laptop.
Now I realize that this contest is not in any way photo related, but the contest idea does have merit…but I really want to win that RUFF laptop.
Hey, at least I’m honest about it.
At any rate. The resources at flauntR are free to use and I believe that the widgets (at least some of them) if used properly, could benefit your blog immensely.
