Question about Online Photo Albums

Posted by elly_nj (My Page) on

I know there are many wonderful photographers on this forum. I have a question: Which online photo album web sites do you prefer for photo sharing and storage?

I have used Webshots for many years, but they have changed and not for the better. I pay ever year for premium service (about $25) and I wonder what people on this forum like.

Please tell me.

Thanks.

I do love webshots. I also like pbase.com, and you can post pic elsewhere from there. It's another premium site. Another nice one is Sony's site, Image station.

I use Image Event. That was my choice after checking out a bunch of theh other ones. It has no free hosting, so the majority of the site is relatively clutter free. No ads at all on your albums. Only $24.95 per year.

You can also link directly to single images. No bandwidth limits.

I like the fact that I can take a paragraph of their code, and place it in my own web page.

This is by linking to their site...

Next, pick any album from links here and see how it displays within my pages - still coming from their host...

You can free test Image Event for a week or two. There are a lot of options for displays and control of most colors.

I paid an extra one time fee to be able to send 50 meg files in case I want to upload videos that size. That one time fee also permits a permanent boost to 3000 megs storage from the 1500 meg storage.

Customer service has been prompt. The site was down only 2 hours that I noticed in 2 years.

They seem to cater to a lot of people who are very adept at photography.
