So right after I plop down a little bit of money to upgrade my Flickr Account to Pro status, Google goes ahead and slashes the price of storage for its products like Picasa web by 75%.  Figures.

Actually, I’m not really all that saddened or irritated by the news.  Although it’d be infinitely easier to use Picasa and Picasa web from a sheer upload and management aspect, the promise of unlimited storage as well as a decent suite of online editing tools is still the better deal in my mind.  Plus Flickr has a HUGE community, especially in the amateur photography circles.

On the other hand…par for the course.

Click Me!

So the picture to the left links to my first big photo set on Flickr.  Now that I’ve made the decision to start creating galleries over on that site I’m starting to explore the options available to me.

Flickr confuses me a little bit.  Or at least how they organize things.  Sets and Collections and Groups and what not.

But it’s got some neat features.  The online photo editing suite looks pretty cool, even if you have to pay for the best features.

[UPDATE]:  Yeah, I forgot about the Shadowbox feature in my blog.  I’ve included a link to the photo set directly in the text above.
