| Flickr vs. Photobucket vs. Zooomer vs. Picasa vs. Shutterfly??? |
|
Anyone have experience with more than one of the above, and can do a compare and contrast? I do currently have a Flickr account, but some of the limits of a free account are annoying.
Limits on free accounts are always annoying. :( :( :( I guess that's why they're free.
Yeah, for now, I'm likely to stick with a free account. Maybe I'm just being cheap, but maybe it's a good time to hold onto one's money.

| 1. Flickr, Picasa, Photobucket |
|
Flickr has the advantage in that more people use it to get and provide feedback - if that's what you're looking for.
Picasa has the advantage in sheer space.
Photobucket has the disadvantage of an unattractive, cluttered layout, but otherwise I have little problem with it.

Does anyone have experience with the sites that let you sell prints online at a profit? I ran across one a couple years ago and can't remember how I got there or what it was called.

Looks like what I've been looking for. Bit on the expensive side though. The pro site would work if I knew people would buy my pictures, but the lower priced sites don't let you make a profit. Wish they had a three month start up trail on the pro version.

Looks like there's no "one size fits all" option. So I guess I'll keep my account at Flickr and open another at PhotoBucket.
