If you want a good place to store, display and post photos I think Flickr is best and better still if you use Apple. Have a look at it and see what you think.

If you simply want to post the pictures and no files, dates, sub sections etc then the simple answer is Postimage.

I just started to sign up to Flickr, then realised it's a Yahoo product. The company that has had a multi-billion user hack. No thanks.

Any updates on this subject. Used to use Photobox then changed to a flickr pro account but they then started wanting huge sums of money if i wanted to store and actually use my photos.

Who good and easy to use now ?
