Online storage

Hello everyone! I love taking pictures and with the advent of the digital age, the more pictures I now take! So, other than flickr, what other site is there where I can store my pictures for safe-keeping?

Currently I only trust Flick'r they are always there. They do not go off to another location where I cant see them any more because they are archived. And many archival services tend to erase things if you change a folder structure etc. etc. too risky.

I have looked into getting space on Amazon S3 but its pricy. Look for FileServers versus backup solutions/ archival etc.

Never used it, but is http://picasaweb.google.com a good alternative to Flickr?

I've had a good experience with both Flickr and picasa and they both do the job well. However, I personally prefer Flickr's organization and structure. But all i can say is they both offer a reliable storage for your photos.

Actually Flickr just updated their design and now it's more quick and efficient.

Picasa is not bad but as Gatt said Flickr has a much better user experience and design.

James, do you find the 100mb upload bandwidth limit with Flickr sufficient for your needs or do you have to constantly watch the restriction?

I pay the $30/yr for the Pro Account, no restrictions. http://www.flickr.com/help/limits/#28

I've got around 230 images on my flickr and I have the same restriction, so far I've been alright but maybe in the near future it'll become a problem.

I use both Flickr and Picasa.

Personally, I like Picasa more for its neat organization, fast upload speed. It is also easy to use. However, it is not a good choice for low-configuration computers because it make its speed slower. It annoyed me when I used my old computer.

DanceFever,

I'd try out Box.com. I've been using them to store eBooks for my website and they have a ton of awesome features that make storing and sharing your content a breeze.

They obviously have paid options, but you can get a ton of storage with the free version and then just update it later if you ever run out of space. I give them two thumbs up because they've made storing and sharing files really easy for me and that's helped my business out a lot.
