Title: Good, Easy, FREE, Site to Share Pics of Your Car?
Post by: lakeholme on August 02, 2007, 01:51:27 AM

Nope, don't know of one... I'm looking for a new one!  :-\

Apparently, several of the free photo sharing sites are closing down in September.  PhotoSite, which I was using offered a free and easy changeover to another site.  That was easy, but the other site wasn't really free... You have to order their products every so often.  ::)

Yes, I know I'm being cheap about this... I prefer to spend my money on cars!  ;D  ;D  ;D

What do you use???  ???

Picasa, part of Google.

Thanks, Kurt.  I also discovered that Yahoo is closing their free site in October and several here use that site.

Anybody else?

I use Village Photo (www.villagephotos.com); they have a free package, but I pay $3.50/month for a premium package that allows me up to 4,000 photos, unlimited daily bandwith access, remote linking, eBay auction photo hosting, and lots of other handy tools. "Free" hosting sites that allow linking are few and far between, and most will be gone by the end of the year.

This would be the second time around.
A bunch of the free sites closed years ago and then the current batch opened. Now they realize their business model is flawed and they are closing down (again).

Well, you both are right.  The "free lunch" eventually goes away even on the Internet.
John, I did look at villagephotos, and if yoiu sign up on the entry level pay package for 6 months it comes to less than $3.OO --not bad!  Considreing the price of premium gas, I suppose even I could spring for that.
Thanks, again.
