I'm on Smugmug as well, but a few months ago I also joined Zenfolio: http://www.zenfolio.com/ It's the same idea as Smugmug, and the pricing is similar, but I prefer the look of Zenfolio's galleries and the user interface for managing photos. My gallery is here: http://sunny16.zenfolio.com/ They

I'll second Ann's recommendation of smugmug. It's hard to beat unlimited storage and unlimited bandwidth for $40 per year. You can get a discount code from any of the current smugmug customers and save $5. Here are the details: George S

Ditto. I use flickr, because there is a very active local group (which is a good is a good source of info as to photo ops/events around town) but I find it annoyingly slow, the UI and look is a PITA. Although I'm finding the ads on photo.net getting more & more intrusive. My preference is to mak

Photo.net faster? Not here. That site is dog slow for the most part. Flickr's speed issues have mostly been resolved when they moved into Yahoo's datacentre earlier this year. But if you do want simple, lightweight pages, photo.net delivers well, even if they do require more massaging of the JP

I refer photo.net to flicker. The cost for a full service account is the same. But the photo.net pages look much better, and the site is much faster. Paul -- Original message -- From: Adam Maas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Flickr displays at 500px on the long side by defa

Flickr displays at 500px on the long side by default. The 'All Sizes' tab gives access to the Larg (1024px on the long side) and also (if you have a Pro account) the full size. pro accounts are $25/yr and also get you unlimited sets and images in your stream, well worth the low cost. -Adam De
