Flickr is widely used. One went down not long ago and it caused many problems where they had to up-load 1000's of images all over again.

And yes people do sell images. However when one looks at the quality one realises one has to be very good or very lucky to sell any.

To show to friends and family then face book is far cheaper there seems to be no limit as to how many one can up-load where with Flickr for any quantity you need to pay.

www.servimg.com offer a free image hosting service but you have to do something so people can see them.

If I post link like this

you can view them but without some web space or other way to let people find them the chance of people finding the image is very low.

So, if I've got your meaning right you'd like to make money from your photography, but you can't be bothered to do the groundwork.

Something tells me you need to rethink your business strategy.

i'm sorry Chris, i was in the middle of lots of grief in GD when i posted that comment.... and the prospect of another forum, doubling the grief is what i was referring to.

You are right of course... i need to get some lessons, get more practise, and then get in the right circles (or forums...).

thanks for your post anyway !!
