I just got a message from Flickr telling me that I am nearing my 200 photo limit and inviting me to upgrade to Flickr Pro. Darn. I originally signed up for Flickr to avoid using up all my webspace on photos. I knew there had to be a limit but since I’ve never come anywhere near my monthly upload limit I assumed that the overall limit must be really huge. I know $24.95 a year isn’t bad but I am habitually reluctant to pay for stuff. (i.e. I’m a tightwad.) It would be cheaper to upgrade my web hosting package. That still wouldn’t give me unlimited storage space. Maybe I should start removing older photos.
UPDATE: Correction. Yes I knew it was a year not a month. Brain on autopilot this morning I guess.
UPDATE II Well, come to think of it, it would not be cheaper to upgrade my web hosting package. I really should wait until after I’m fully awake and sufficiently caffeinated to get on the Internet.

Actually, it’s $24.95 a year. But you probably meant to type that. ‘
I dunno. I’m pretty sure there are free sites out there but I like flickr and don’t mind paying the “pro” fee.

I went ahead and signed up for the Pro package, not because I need the space – I have fewer than 100 photos there – but because the sorting options are better, and because it seems that Yahoo! pesters me less about not having one of their email accounts if I send them a check once in a while.
