Free Photography Websites

[Kingsctya]

So I want to start putting my photo's on a website so people can view my art but I want to know if there are any free websites I can upload my pictures to besides FaceBook and which ones are the best. But if I do have to pay for a web subscriptions which one of the paid ones would you recommend ? Thanks for any feedback

I use photobucket.com, pbase, and flickr. I do pay for the upgrade with Pbase and flickr though.

Photobucket is free? and is it good to use or do you use the others more frequently?

Photobucket is rubbish for hosting art photography, the images get compressed far too much. Flickr would be the better option.

A lot of people use flickr.

I use deviantart.com. It's free and they also offer a portfolio site.

I also use webs.com for my website. The free package includes a lot of memory space, but you wouldn't want to put all your pictures there. I use a combination of the two, putting my best on my actual website and saying "for more examples, go to my facebook or DA portfolio".

Never heard of deviantart but i went there and it looks like a good place to sell pictures and thanks for the good idea about webs.com......i think i might try uploading albums to flickr and see if they come out without so much compression

It is indeed a good place to sell.

Also, I haven't tried flickr, but with deviant art, if you wanted have a photography blog, it is included in your account. I know a lot of people who have a facebook, a website, a twitter, a flickr, and a wordpress. But both Facebook and Deviant art have a blog you can use, as well as status updates. So it's kinda of a one stop shop.

Good luck with your flickring!
