Photo Hosting Sites

[scotsman]

Hi, can anyone recommend a good photo hosting site?

I've tried Photopic, but find it really hard to work.
I've also tried flickr, loved it but run out of room.

Any suggestions on photo sites with more space and multiple upload tools?

I assume you mean fotopic?
This is one of the easiest to use
What issue are you experiencing?

If you want more control, buy a Domain Name and some webspace (typical cost about £5 per year)
Yes it will cost you money but you will have vastly more control and the images will normally load faster

Yes, I did mean fotopic - I found the whole site very fiddly. Even after uploading photos, the didn't appear on my page.

You need to "wait", I find it can be anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours
Since it is "free" you get what you pay for!

I did!

I recently got an email from them saying "You have 0 photos"

Try uploading directly on FTP, that is what I use for file transfers

Used Fotopic for years and never had any trouble at all

Presumably those are also your messages on scot-rail about the activation email, so looks like a local issue

I use the Plus level, after a trial period on the free version.
Almost no problems, either uploading or viewing.
I use the web uploader (up to 10 at a time) after GIMPing them to scale the images (smaller file sizes and saved as .jpg which works for me)


Have a look, link in signature, PM me if you want?

I have a Flickr Pro account. It is possible to use your own webspace with software like Coppermine but if you have comments on be prepared for a lot of spam

I use fotopic, which does the job quite well, but can be frustratingly slow at times.
