    Good web sites (free or inexpensive) for posting photos for public access
    I'm interested in a "best site" for publishing various directories of photos including:
    1. for the small ski club I'm a member of, to leave photos of our lodge for members and potential guests (ideally therefore a site with no extraordinarily long link/address)
    2. somewhere for my daughter to leave her selected photos (a "brag book" on the net
    and so on, maybe including my own photos of trips etc..

    There seem to be various sites like Club Photo, Fuji etc. but I'd welcome any recommendations or issues to avoid.

    I use picturetrails.com for this. Account information is explained here.

    I use the $19.95 a year Premium account to avoid banner adds being displayed with my images. You can see my folders here.

    You can also use urls for individual photos like this
    http://pic3.picturetrail.com/VOL22/5...9/21436893.jpg
    when you just want to share one photo with someone.

    The Yahoo picture pages seem to be used by many of my friends.
    The http://photobucket.com/ seems good too.

    I recently got an account with Smugmug. The link to my account is:

    http://stevelutzphoto.smugmug.com/

    It's $29 a year, for pretty much unlimited storage. The interface is simple to use, the photo uploads have all gone flawlessly and no down time. The presentation is very classy, with no banner ads. It looks very professional. Check out my galleries and see if this is what you're looking for. Good Luck!

    One of the best places I have found for website hosting accounts and I have my own reseller account with them as well is http://www.totalchoicehosting.com if anyone is interested in hosting accounts and want to host with me then contact me and we can discuss what you need as well. If I get some accounts off of members here, of which I have been a member for about 2 years now, I will donate a portion of the hosting account back to photographyreview.com as well for the length of time people want to host an account with me. I am not totalchoicehosting.com by the way, I just use them myself.

    If I can help anyone out let me know.
