Evening all, I need to put some photos together into a gallery, I normally post them on my own website, but it’s tiresome doing it manually - any recommendations please for a simple gallery provider, preferably free, easy to use and nothing annoying? Larry’s Brit Car Meet was on Flickr and that looked fine and I liked how easy it is to click through one at a time. Any catches with Flickr Larry?

Cheers

It used to be that you could get a free flickr account that would be fine for what you’re trying to do.

There are a range of issues with flickr, but if they still have the free accounts, none of them should matter in this instance.

If you use Lightroom and have an Adobe account, then I suggest that infrastructure. It is simple to drag/drop some images into a Collection, define the collection as something you would like synced, et voila you have a gallery on line.

Stan the Man! How are you mate?

Thanks for the info. I don’t have Lightroom and zero Adobe accounts. My son does, and he can have 2 authorised versions of CS6, so I use CS6.

I use Flickr and have been using it for the past 14 years or so.

How much is a Flickr PRO subscription?

Monthly Retail price: USD $6.99, plus tax
3-Month Retail price: USD $18.99, plus tax (USD $6.33 a month)
Annual Retail price: USD $59.99, plus tax (USD $4.99 a month)

GBP

Monthly Retail price: £6.49, VAT inclusive
3-Month Retail price: £16.99, VAT inclusive
Annual Retail price: £55.88, VAT inclusive

Euro

Monthly Retail price: €7.49, VAT inclusive
3-Month Retail price: €19.99, VAT inclusive
Annual Retail price: €65.88, VAT inclusive
——

US$60 per year is US$5 per month. Considering how many thousands of image files (5,329 as of this moment) they maintain on my behalf—both public and private access; JPEG and raw format—and how effectively the site works for both image presentation and web sharing photos to a half-dozen different photo and other forums, I consider that cheap: a bargain.

Generally, you get what you pay for. Free stuff is often quite without any value.

On reflection, that Flickr.com monthly charge is less than I spend per day on an espresso and a snack at the local cafe. Maybe I should start making my own espresso? ;)

I fully agree with Godfrey on the value of Flickr Pro for image storage
and easy presentation with private access or by friends, family or
general public.
However I cannot store my DNG RAW files on Flickr so these I keep on
local disks.
