Larry, Yes, of course posting to a picture hosting site is an option. I mentioned that in an email yesterday. The problem is that pictures posted to secondary sites may be removed, the account closed, or their address changed over the course of time. Hopefully posting with some attachments these pictures will remain linked to the post on the Google site even if the hosting account there changes over time. A combination would be a good option, some select photos resized with the post, and them a greater selection of larger photos on a separate picture hosting site. These sites often will allow you to embed a slide-show into an email or a website.
