OK, I know the new guys don't want to be a photo server, & I respect that  8)
However, I need a simple to post up some digital hotness...
So, what are your recommendations?
There's flickr, photobucket, tinypic. What else?
Didn't look like tinypic allowed for your own page. couldn't tell.
What about copyright issues?
Which one's easier, etc??
Lemme know so we can get this party started ;D

Thanks B- flickr looks nice. Clean & well organized.
How easy to upload pics, & how easy is it to link to a pic from here?

It's pretty much drag and drop using one of their utilities or the web-based uploader.  On an average high speed connection it'll make quick work of uploads.

As far as uploading, I just click the picture I want and then copy/past the URL location under it's properties.  On Safari I think it's copy picture location.  Then link using the html code or button

Crap, Flick is a Yahoo product, to which I am generally opposed, kinda like MS. Oh well...

I use www.smugmug.com

Tons of features but it's a subscription based site. They do have a pro level subscription that allows you to set your own price for prints. Not as intuitive and simple as the free sites, but you have a lot more control over the look and layout to where you can create your own graphics around their layout.

+1 love using Flickr--I use with with my MAC, no issues. It also has a cool editing feature I just found last week. Some ofe those features are "premium," though.

I host them on my own server.  Well, not "my own" server... I pay for webhosting which includes a few gigabytes of space.
