Does anyone know of a good, free online photo album website that has unlimited storage? Or at least a very high storage capability?

Have signed up for loads and then read the very small print!!

Thanks

Woza.

If you sign up with www.photobox.co.uk and buy any sort of print, they give you (last time I looked) 50mb - (and you get the first 30 prints free!) then every time you buy another print you get a further 50 mb. I'm currently at 1150mb free space

They also sell your prints... thus: www.photoboxgallery.com/Carter

I had a look round last year and found the same - there's no such thing as a "free lunch". Went with pbase in the end. 400mb for $23 a year. No hastles. No having to buy prints. Store and view images full res. No ads or popups and your friends dont have to register to view your photos. Worth a pound a month for zero hassle.

Just to clarify, with Photobox the first 200mb is free and there is no obligation to purchase prints or increase this size.

I got an offer from photobox of 250mb space using the code NEWYEARSPACE250 in your credit account

I've currently got 1.5GB with them

The other option is to get some cheap hosting with loads of space like www.dreamhost.com/hosting.html

I have nearly 300GB space with them at the moment (if you do go with them, let me know and I can get you a discount )

Flickr has unlimited storage, but they limit you on how much you can upload each month.

Oooh! Just looked and you're right! Thats excellent, I'm a paid memeber and until now it just got a much bigger limit, but they've now made it unlimited. That'll be a big help to me this year as I often ran out of upload bandwidth last year!

I noticed there was no limit a couple of weeks ago, but I found the original pro 2gb month limit ample I never came close to it and uploaded shed loads of 3MB pics.

Edited to add. Have just seen how many pics you got, no surprise limits were an issue
