MySpace Photo Editor
MySpace has recently integrated a brand new Flash-based application of photo editing tools into its site, which gives myspace users the ability to crop, edit, and stylize their photos from directly within their web browser. The tools are powered by Fotoflexer, which a browser-based photo editing startup that also powers Photobucket’s image editing features (Photobucket and MySpace are owned by the same company, so this isn’t too surprising). If you want to try out this cool feature, simply select a photo in one of your MySpace photo albums and press the ‘Customize Photo’ button.
This new tool allow myspace users to edit their photos in a number of ways, including many advanced editing options like red-eye removal, blemish removal, and cropping, as well as a number of image filters like ‘pop art’ and ‘neon colors’. Users can also drag and drop speech bubbles and virtual stickers to embellish their pictures – a feature that I’m pretty sure any hard core MySpace users will just love.
Now if we compare MySpace’s photo tools with Facebook’s existing photo editing features then I must say that Facebook is still far behind in their game. Facebook only allows you to rotate images, and that’ pretty much all they have thought about.
I hope that Facebook will start to take Myspace more seriously and consider adding some rather useful features in their current system.
