PhotoBlog?

Not sure if this was already discussed, if so, sorry for repost.
Does anyone have a Photoblog? If you do, what site would you recomend. Any good "free" ones you'd recomend. I'm thinking about starting one.

LOL, asking that question here is like asking who likes sex.... umm... EVERYONE!

I would say a good 50% of people here have a photo blog. I have one... even if no one but me reads it

I have one (link in my sig).

For my blog I used the pixelpost platform and hosted it with godaddy (which I paid for, although you can find free hosts that it will work with I believe).

I've also seen several photoblogs hosted with aminus that look pretty good.

LOL! Too true!

My photoblog is in my signature as well. I'm also using pixelpost. I'm actually on the development team for PP but haven't done much in a while. I love it, but unless we get some new life in the project, I'm not sure it'll be able to keep up with other blogging applications. I use DreamHost Web Hosting they're great for the price. If you sign up now you can get a year's worth of hosting for under $10.

I looks at it when I see you post Not as some reward, I just go "hey have I seen this blog before?" click the link and go "Oh, it's Max's! With the Autoviewer gallery!"

I have a blog as well, and I use it more as a journal more than anything. It gets me motivated to try something else with a picture or situation that the EXIF info cannot tell me.

Mine is just a free wordpress for now. Maybe someday I'll do something a little fancier but this works for today. In fact I'm off to play with it now, thinking of changing the theme some. Not sure.

I use Blogger. It's okay. I'm frustrated at the moment because Google Adsense stopped working several months ago. It's not like I'd be making a fortune on the site, but with 50+ hits a day and 120 or so followers, it'd be nice to get $5-$10 a month from ads.

This Tutorial:

In A Flash: Water Figure Tutorial

is what's causing most of the hits. If you write one good tutorial on something that hasn't been written about before, you'll get lots of visitors.

I have a free wordpress blog also. Can't decide if it's worth getting dedicated hosting, the hits are less than impressive. The free wordpress layouts are fairly diverse, and stat tracking works well.

I just started one for my 52 week project (in sig if you didn't notice ) and am using Wordpress as well, I like the clean clutter-free layout that I found with it, but there are only about 27 to choose from (I think Blogger has many more).
It's easy to use and the stats tracking is interesting as well.
Overall I'm very pleased with it but I really don't demand much lol

In my defence I will say, the whole "PhotoBlog" was a title to grab the reader's interest. The question was that if you have one, what type do you recomend. Still I suppose it was alittle redondent. I could have rephased it better.

Thanksyou for the suggestions. I think for now I will look into wordpress or blogger.
