yahoo photos is closing. Yahoo is offering migration to the following: flickr photobucket shutterfly snapfish kodak I use it mostly for sharing since I am a die hard with both digital and film cameras. Anybody use any of the above? any comments on what you like or don't like? Thanks!
I'll chime in on the anti-Flickr side. They seem to me, based on a few threads I've been involved in elsewhere, far too unconcerned, about enforcing their own rule (and the law) that their members are not permitted to post copyrighted material that doesn't belong to that member, while claiming it as their own. Has left a very bad taste in my mouth, as someone who is seriously interested in photography, perhaps as more than a hobby one day. (And I'm sure this kind of theft is not limited to only Flickr members... I'm sure it happens everywhere on the web, to some degree... it has just been my experience that the vast majority of times I hear of a thief being confronted by one of my colleagues on a photography site, the theft was spotted on Flickr. I've been disappointed to read the threads about all the hassle the copyright owner had to go through, to get Flickr to help remove the stolen image.) That said, I've never signed up with them, so if these concerns are not the kind that would worry you, I can't speak to how well their file sharing/printing/ordering business operates... I'm sure it works well.
