Re: Online photo storage

I'm a Flickr fan, too, and I created a private group for my school where
contributors can pool photos. Also, I really like the gallery feature in
iPhoto '08 which allows you to create a password protected photo space if
you have a .Mac account. People can view your photos in a slideshow,
download photos, and even contribute by adding pictures of their own.

Hope this helps,
