9. I have my own website and have family and other photos on there.

I pay so much two year for a domain name and then $120 a year for the webspace. The domain was originally for my business, but since I own the name, I've just kept it. Over the years they have increased the space available for my site

I use jAlbum to create album pages. It will keep the directory set up if you want so if you have a master file of your photos, you can just point jAlbum at it and it will create albums that you simply upload, either with the app inside jAlbum or with a FTP program.

When I started, jAlbum was open source and free. Now it costs $35. Your license is good forever but support including updates is for 12 months. Once you have your albums uploaded, you may never have to pay unless web standards change a lot and you want to update them for security or whatever. It creates HTML web pages with all the links between sets of pages.

jAlbum has sample pages at their site and lots of skins to change the appearance. Some of the skins allow adding comments. It is very easy to use and pretty fast to upload. If you add pictures or make changes, it's uploader is smart enough to only make the changes.
