Ok, if our two choices are: Picnik or native solution, you (and probably most of us) prefer native solution. If our two choices are Picnik or nothing, I say, let's get to work.
If by "let's get to work" you mean "let's create a free/open solution", then great! :)
If you mean "let's integrate the proprietary, non-free tool", then I have to disagree. Relying on non-free resources to fill in gaps in the free resource universe leads to complacency and damages the motivation to create a more widely useful free resource.
That goes for software just as much as it goes for encyclopedia articles and photographs.
