Re: Online photo storage

We use Flickr Pro - $25/year - unlimited storage, etc. We are still
transitioning to it from our on campus system. Tags, keywords - yes. High
quality images. Access - you have to be creative. You have one login for
the pro account but you can share pictures with other *free* accounts.
You can only upload (unlimited) from the Pro login.
