We currently back up our photos to an external hard drive which is fine if the computer dies but not so fine if it goes missing.....so I was wondering if anyone uses any online storage for their collections?
If so who?

I've just started uploading my favourite photos to Photobucket. Its entirely free. Its good for moving & organising your photos into albums & you can share them with friends if you want.

The only thing I don't like about it is that it compresses the images so if you right-click & save them to your HD later on, you'll find them smaller :shakehead:

Nope, I feel like once things are online, they're there forever. You just never know with online. We back up to 2 portable hard drives.
