Flickr

I'm back.... a little earlier than I and you probably thought, right!?

Well, I just uploaded some new pictures on Flickr and I got a message from them saying that I have reached my limit. Limit? I didn't know I had a limit, but apparently I do. When you have a free account you are limited to uploading only 200 pictures. After that, if you upload anymore the earlier ones get hidden so that you can't see them anymore, and I believe that includes me. The only way to avoid this is to buy a pro account. What's a girl to do? I really don't want to buy an account and if I upload just one more picture, one will disappear. I can't even delete pictures to purge the account. Are all picture hostings sites like this? So aggravating. Maybe if I had known about this before I created the account, I would have thought twice about signing up.

I knew about Flickr and I'm hoping I don't exceed 200 photos, as I don't use it often.

I've also been noticing that there is a limit on Blogger, too.

I'm not sure about other hosts and if they have similar rules.

I was a little miffed when I hit my flickr limit too. But, I did end up with the pro account and have been pretty happy with it. What's this lera is saying about the blogger limit?! I haven't heard of that one yet....

I don't know what Lera means regarding blogger. I have never heard of a limit and I don't know if its regarding picture limit or written limit. As for flickr... I am not sure what I am going to do. For now I have held off on adding any new photos.
