Hey, just curious, but, what do alot of you guys use for to host your own photos?

I just tried flickr, but, they have a limit on how many i can put up a month

I also have a photobucket, but, thats really slow.

Any other good site you guys can recomend? Thanks

twizhimself · 01-22-2010, 04:41 PM

flickr all the way...worth 25 bux a year for PRO hosting..and they DONT re-size your photos..like picasa and photobucket

YellowMSP · 01-22-2010, 05:58 PM

i use zenfolio. it costs more than flickr but i think it offers a lot more

jspek · 01-22-2010, 10:26 PM

Flickr. And for stuff I don't care about I use imageshack.

Khellen · 01-24-2010, 03:11 PM

I'm going to have to look into this as well since hosting pictures I post on this site is sending my bandwidth through the roof.

djb5118 · 01-24-2010, 05:48 PM

im on flickr pro also and have had 0 problems

grimm · 01-24-2010, 10:11 PM

i have my own web hosting i use that for all my sites as well as images. i have a basic flikr account though, and had a photobucket, and a snapfish i think.

I use Flickr. It takes a lot of photos to be able to use the limit on free accounts. Stop being cheap and get a $24 pro account! Lol

sleeper15 · 02-19-2010, 09:58 PM

yeah, i just gave in and upgraded to a pro account.

Even with the basic flickr account, you have 100mb worth of space each month. Dude, thats quite a bit. But i use my own website plus flickr to host photos. own host>Flickr>all

DreamHost
Unlimited bandwidth, unlimited space... no worries.

I currently host my site plus two local car forums. Last month, 16 GB disk space used, 89 GB of transfer.

SvicksTc · 02-22-2010, 05:21 PM

So flickr you can buy for the year or have to pay each month?

Hm, my photos on my d80, raw, come out at ~17.5mb. Im very picky with my photos so out of about 300, i usually will only take 10. Granted, every shoot i do, i often shoot about 8 to 12 gigs of photos. I filled up my free space on flickr very quickly too.

8-12 gb per shoot? Once you convert raw files to JPG, the files aren't that big. Most JPG images that are 12-20 megapixels should still be less than 5 MB /image.

My raw files are 25-29 MB /each and I don't take as much as space as you do.
