Flickr online storage

[arclight]

Not quite sure where to post this.

Prompted to sign up to Flickr in order to view Rob's Afghanistan pics and go on to use my account for online storage.
Anyone know of any drawbacks to using online storage and what one would you recommend?

Flickr is decent enough, a free account comes at the right price too

Thanks for that.

I paid for the 'Pro' account - more space as I recall...

I think there's a more restrictive upload limit, and you're only allowed to create a few different sets unless you have a Pro account too. I've just paid for my annual account.

Off-topic, but I've just signed up for Pix.ie, uploaded eight photos, and only four of them work. The others are just blank. I've even deleted and re-upped them, and it's still the same.

More space, more size options and the ability to replace images, rather than having to delete and upload again.

I went for the Pro account, wasn't very much as I recall.

 

[GrittyShaker]

About 24USD, and some cents, I think.

Cheers folks - are the paid accounts a one off payment?

 

[GrittyShaker]

No, it's annual.

No, it's annual.

Thanks - not what I was hoping to hear. However, such is life.
