Just sitting here thinking about sharing photos. I love to see the pictures, but often don't know where to save them or what to do with them.
Web spaces for photos are becoming popular, such as Flickr (a Yahoo product, needing a Yahoo account), PicasaWeb (Google) and KodakGallery. Flickr seems to be a leader and has some good options, such as (as far as I can tell) unlimited storage--although there is a monthly upload limit--and an option to upload photos to a standard size allowing 4X6 printing for "friends" and "family" invitees. Picasa and PicasWeb use Google and gmail accounts, so it is easy to have all of us invited and able to use the space, and there is currently a 1 gig limit for pictures, which seems like plenty. Kodak has a buhzillion printing and product options, but looks like they want a yearly purchase.
Anyway, I am wondering what, if anything, any of you use. Is there an advantage or preferrence you know about? If so, please reply to this post. Also, if you do have such a site, could you share the link and let us know how to get an account? I could add the link to the right side here. Is anyone interested in me setting up something with Picasa where we could share photos using this account?
I've dabbled with old scanned photos at flickr http://flickr.com/photos/kirkcherrie/
