Eventually, participating in groups grew tiresome. For a period of time, I was submitting my photos to groups and getting tons of people to look at them. There are millions of members and thousands of groups. The real power of Flickr however, is the huge community of people which use it. $20/year is honestly a great deal considering you get unlimited everything. Facebook, like Flickr, is free and easy to use if you want to share photos with your friends.Įventually, I found it necessary to increase my storage limits on Flickr and I purchased a Pro account, which is $20/year. In fact, since I’ve started using Flickr, Facebook has surpassed Flickr in the total number of photos stored. The 100mb limit for storage each month is more than enough for most people. If you own a point and shoot camera and just take casual photos, Flickr is great. Like most people, I began using Flickr as my photo hosting solution because it was free, easy to use, and well known. However, I also understand why it wouldn’t be for everyone. The more I investigated it, SmugMug really is a no-brainer for me. So I figured I’d explain everything in as much detail as I can. I mentioned this on Twitter and I’ve gotten a lot of questions as to why I’m leaving Flickr and my self-hosted site for SmugMug. I’ve spent the last several days doing the time consuming chore of reformatting and redirecting all the old images on my site that point to Flickr and my self hosted photos, to Smugmug.
