A few months ago I got a sweet new camera that 1) fits in my shirt pocket; 2) takes pictures with a few hundred gigapixels per square inch; and 3) has a 2-GB memory card that holds about 2000 images. This last bit is the most problematic, because I now tend to shadow the boys like a demented paparazzo until all the pictures are of Robert's palm.
I've posted about pictures before, but I've come to the conclusion that putting up a few of them on this web site now and then won't bring about the End of Days. The problem is choosing which platform to use.
Flickr seems to be the predominant one among the bloggerati, although I remember hearing bad things about it. I wish I could provide more clarity about this, but I remember reading about its interface, or copyright issues, or deleting photos, or how it was somehow way too easy for some cave-dwelling guttersnipe to right-click on your picture and do unpleasant things to it. I've also seen Picasa and PhotoBucket bandied about.
Have you heard bad stuff about Flickr? Or did I imagine it? And if you were to choose a new picture platform, which would it be?
