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?
Why?

Cost?

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

Thanks I will check it out, interesting about compressing the images tho - guess it makes sense!

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.
