From their tumblr page.


Fotolia’s premium collection of free and affordable royalty-free images are now directly available from within Xycod’s Postworkshop 2.1.

PostworkShop is a comprehensive toolkit for digital image enhancement and artistic reinterpretation that provides a creative platform for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

With the integration of Fotolia’s online image search, users will have access to Fotolia’s vast library of over 14 million stock photos, illustrations and vectors directly from the application itself. Trial image enhancement and manipulation, image purchase, download, and indexing all take part in this streamlined process to seamlessly incorporate high quality stock into design flow.

“We are very excited about the opportunity to work with Xycod”, noted Garth Johnson, Executive Vice President at Fotolia North America. “By integrating images and processing in a more symbiotic, innovative way, Xycod and Fotolia are able provide a great platform of benefit to both Fotolia’s photographer contributors, and the graphics design realm as a whole,” he remarked.

PostworkShop 2.1 is now available for download at http://postworkshop.net/ (http://postworkshop.net/)

The xycod site has a video showing how to use the FT integration. I wonder if this is part of the reason for the commission and pricing changes. There is also no word on what the licensing terms are (ie can I use your photo to make "art" in this program and then license the image via a gallery site?)
