Photo Sharing

Flickr is a well known photo sharing website the photo's you upload become a sort of blog for the other viewers looking at your page, site or comments.  The main features of the website are:

Membership:  You have to sign up to the website in order to share your photos with other users/viewers.  To add personal information is an option, you do not have to provide any if you do not wish to. 

Maps:  You can attach your photos to maps. 

Comments:  You can also add comments to your own and other peoples photos that any viewers/users can read and comment back. 

You can also edit pictures on Flickr, it gives you many features to use to help you edit it the way you would like it. 

Photobucket is another well know photo sharing website, however it has some different features from Flickr. 

Photobucket mainly have the same features as Flickr but does not have the map feature. 

The best thing about photobucket is you can view pictures that are mainly edited or animated so highly useful if you like to upload pictures that you have edited on your own.
