itasveer integrates with flickr today, reaching the last mile of Indian digital photo enthusiasts. This comes just a week after itasveer bags “The best Indian website for photo printing” [PCWorld] by dint of their neat & cool interactive & creativity tool doodlepad.itasveer is the first Indian photo printing website to intuitively integrate with Flickr “even for non-PRO accounts”, Picsquare has been offering this service only for Flickr PRO accounts, which IMHO is not something to brag about.What this means for itasveer-Flickr users is that they do not need to upload their images twice, they can just import their Flickr images to itasveer and use them for ordering prints in the photo section / designing custom gifts in doodlepad.Flickr non-PRO users note, you can only order custom gifts or prints 5″x7″ or less, as Flickr does not provide full resolution images to non-PRO accounts.
Setting up your itasveer account with your Flickr account is a breeze, here’s a nice FAQ outlining the process and some screenshots. BTW itasveer.com also got a website facelift today
Watch out for some audio-visual tutorials on itasveer, and my next article in this segment – A critical look at the Indian online photo printing market!!

Is this for free?
Now this is really cool..given that there is no other service which offers photo printing of Flickr pics..
Rupen, yes it is free for itasveer users.
Tarun, picsquare allows the same, but only for “flickr pro” users. itasveer is the only Indian photo printing website to bring this feature to all flickr users.
Is this the Vista integration or just the online stuff?
This is damn interesting…
I wish they can also do the opp – i.e. if I can push my existing pics to Flickr?

Anonymous, It is flickr integration not the Vista integration.
Savio, good point becos then you have integration both ways. Though I would conjecture there are many more people with their images on flickr than on itasveer.
Hi, Animesh from itasveer.com here. Thanks for the appreciation/feedback
Well it is possible to push photos to flickr.. but we haven’t found reason enough to do that just yet. Our focus is to be a print provider for flickr users, not just for photo prints.. but for custom products like tshirts, mugs. Doodlepad is a great way to design this stuff online. You can make collages of your photos, add clipart, text, speech bubbles and so on. We’re about to add new products pretty soon. So give itasveer a try and keep the feedback coming. We’re listening
guys
i love the doodlepad stuff…expect some major print orders in d comin week.
