    Flikr alternative ?

    Hi , I like using flikr to post my nicer photos , but I used to use use Photobucket to post stuff on ebay and on non photo related sites . Photobucket now charges to store such photos , so I was wondering if there was a similar free site I could use to host such photos .

    I am with you there. I too used photobucket to store and post some of my non essential photos but now have no where else to store them. I use Flickr for most of my good photos.

      Simple answer is no BUT if it’s just a case of storage either set up another Flickr account or simply post them and make them private

        All my photos, whether they end up on Flickr as well or not, get backed up to Google photos. You can have unlimited space for free if you allow Google to compress the files somewhat (16MB I think, and it's fine for using on eBay and the like) and it's easy to have all pictures backed up automatically by telling it which folders to backup.

        Also, I can access it from any Android phone or tablet, wherever I am.

        Here's Google's copy of the moon photo that I posted earlier this week.

            I have my own Flickr account in addition to sharing another for images from an Art Group of which I'm a member.
            You can get a second Yahoo email account just by typing something relevant eg Fallow2@yahoo.co.uk

              I have two Flickr accounts, the main one sorted into albums which contain all the processed shots from a particular shoot, some 12000 shots and the other just used to upload the odd shots for posting on forums.
