Uploaded photos can be personalized online using stylR, the flauntR tool to apply thousands of one-click effects, photo frames, filters, and overlays. Basic editing and enhancements to photos can be done using editR, the photo-editing tool in flauntR suite.
Users can add custom font text messages, slap-on shapes, stickers, speech bubbles, and disguises to photos with the textR tool of flauntR. The profilR tool helps to create the ideal profile photo for social networks and online services. profilR already supports over 30 popular networks, including social networking websites like MySpace, photo storage services like Flickr, and online publishing websites like Blogger.
Photos can also be converted to mobile wallpapers using mobilR, which has best-fit photo sizes for over 250 phone models built in. The picasR tool enable users to capture colors from world famous paintings to give a classic look to photos. Various color tones that are normally achieved through professional editing can be applied with a single click using picasR.
