Once you click on the ‘Edit Photo’ button on top of any image you will be taken to this screen. From here you can crop, rotate, change the exposure, sharpen or fix red eyes just to name a few. Under the ‘Create’ tab, you add fun photoshop like effects, text, and frames to your pictures. Some of these features are only available under a premium service which is almost as much a year as your Flickr subscription but there is plenty of free options make your pictures look their best. Flickr even gives you the option to save your changed image as a different version and keep the original, very handy for archival purposes.

Overall its a great addition to an already great photo service. Make sure to check it out.
