After becoming (almost) fully integrated into MySpace, Photobucket has just released a few upgrades to its slide show creation tool. The upgrades are pretty basic, but tie in quite well with the over-abundant usage of shiny, flashy things with which to adorn your slide show, in turn adorning your MySpace profile (or any other profile where you’ve placed your Photobucket slide show).

First up, Pro account users now have the ability to add up to 50 images per slide show, and free users have been upped to 30. In terms of new customization options, there are now 20 new slide show frames and styles available for your use, thanks to the contributions of Flektor, another MySpace-assimilated tool. Lastly, there is support from every style for the addition of titles and captions, giving you more options for the story-telling approach to your Photobucket slide show.

What we haven’t seen a lot of from Photobucket is collaboration tools, especially for use on MySpace. Such collaboration seems to be one of the biggest trends in the media-sharing space, even for Fliptrack, and is one that would blend nicely with MySpace/Photobucket initiatives.
