How to Use Picnik on Facebook
Picnik is a photo editing application for Facebook that allows users to "make your photos fabulous," according to the app. Any photos that are already part of a Facebook album can be placed into the Picnik photo editing program, which can adjust color, exposure, red eye, and can create special effects. Photos in your own albums or in friend's albums can be edited and shared for free, and more advanced editing techniques are available in the "Picnik Premium" package for $24.95 per year as of May 2011.
