Re: Photo Hosting Site - Flickr or.....?
I fully agree with Godfrey on the value of Flickr Pro for image storage and easy presentation with private access or by friends, family or general public. However I cannot store my DNG RAW files on Flickr so these I keep on local disks.

Re: Photo Hosting Site - Flickr or.....?
Thanks Igor - that’s really useful info. I’ve signed up with Flickr and with a free account I get to upload 1000 images. That’s absolutely fine as I just want to do some quick galleries of boatbuilding stuff, a hundred or so. I do have Amazon Prime and I didn’t know about the photo hosting so will take a closer look at that too. I saw Google did it but it needs access to my photos and contacts and God knows what, which I’m not prepared to do. I don’t backup in the cloud, I backup manually locally so they can suck it!!

Re: Photo Hosting Site - Flickr or.....?
The free limit on Flickr is 1000 photos. I have been deleting some "unnecessary" posts to keep below 1000 but it looks like I will either have to go Pro or perhaps try a second free account with a different e-mail address. Pro is $59.50/a which is SAR900/a - quite expensive. Alan C On 04-Oct-21 01:24 AM, Igor PDML-StR wrote: My wife has a flickr account.

Stan the Man! How are you mate? Thanks for the info. I don’t have Lightroom and zero Adobe accounts. My son does, and he can have 2 authorised versions of CS6, so I use CS6.

It used to be that you could get a free flickr account that would be fine for what you’re trying to do.

Evening all, I need to put some photos together into a gallery, I normally post them on my own website, but it’s tiresome doing it manually - any recommendations please for a simple gallery provider, preferably free, easy to use and nothing annoying? Larry’s Brit Car Meet was on Flickr and that looked fine and I liked how easy it is to click through one at a time. Any catches with Flickr Larry?
