Photo Storage

[prosodic]

I need to move all my photo albums out of the Kodak Gallery website.

The reason for this is simple - they require me to make one purchase a year. I really don't feel that's necessary anymore, since I have a photo printer here at home and I generally don't buy photo gifts.

I may have to get something this time...it's a minimum $4.99 purchase in order to keep my account open. And I have such a large number of photo albums that I think it will take longer than 30 days to move them all. Mother's Day is next month anyway, so I might as well just order something for Mom, have done with it, and than gradually start moving my albums over to another photo storage site.

I also use Photobucket, but it's getting incredibly cluttered, and I would like to keep my personal and travel photos separate.

Maybe I should just open a separate Photobucket account for my travel photos, as I like them anyway.

But of course, once I move all my photos, than I also have to change all the links on my travel blog. What a huge pain in the ass this all is.

Thank you, Kodak, for making things so damned inconvenient!

For the record, I had my photo storage account with them for years before they required me to buy anything in order to keep the account open.

Get a flickr.com account. It's the easiest photo website I've ever used

I was thinking about it, and it's probably easier to do that than to continually log out of one Photobucket site to log onto another. Same reason I keep my travel blog on Blogger and my personal blog here at LJ.

A nice feature of flickr is that you can create sets of photos. So you could put all your photos on flickr but have a travel blog set w/ all of those photos in it, and a personal set. And you can set some of your photos so only friends and family can see them too.

We use photobucket and google picasaweb http://picasaweb.google.com

Also, you can try http://flamber.ru/ (with google translate in use) it is not very fast but very em.. "smart" =)
