Photo startup Snapjoy launched a clever promotional scheme this afternoon to lure users over from Flickr. And it succeeded perhaps too well.The Y Combinator-backed company aims to be an online repository where users can store all their photos, while also sharing them on a limited basis. That already made Snapjoy a competitor, of sorts, to older photo sites like (Yahoo-owned) Flickr and (Google-owned) Picasa, but the startup decided to make the competition more direct with a service called Flickraft, which promised to "rescue" photos from the "sinking ship" of Flickr by creating an easy way to transfer photos from Flickr to Snapjoy.
