In a nutshell, Picnik is an online image editing program. It won't do everything that Photoshop does, but it has many features that are missing from other online applications. Because it's flash based, image editing takes place in real time. You don't have to send a message to a server and wait for a reply. Of course, if your browser crashes, you may lose your work, but backups are saved online. And since Picnik is web-based, you can start working on one computer and finish on another.

Picnik is completely free while in beta. When it officially launches, there will be two tiers: a free service for basic image editing, and a premium version with more features for $20/year.
