(e.g. growth chart, tooth chart, picture puzzler, etc.) I've seen other theBABYjournal users pages who still use flickr for some things and link to it on their page, but I just don't see the need... tBj is much easier to use imho.

I don't want anybody to be able to see my family photos. I want to decide exactly who will get them and I want to personalize the comments according to each recipient. In this case she will not have problem with Virgin. Flickr is public 2Pad is Private Then I use www.2pad.com. I enjoy Flickr but I’ll never use it for my private photos, I’d rather use 2pad .

Finally, your friends and family dont have to be members of flickr or yahoo to view your pics, like Valerie said just create a set, and in that set's main page, click Share this set. The rest is fairly intuitive. The NICE thing about doing it that way is that even pics that are marked private will be shared. That way, you can keep the masses away from pics of the little one, and share them with just people you want to see the pics. Sadly, this is VERY necessary as MANY MANY flickr users who post pics of their kids are having issues with people from other countries and cultures, stealing the pics (right click, save as - its pretty easy) and using them, typically on their Orkut page, as their own profile pictures. Very weird, and very creepy. To be safe, make all photos of your kids private, then share them via the SHARE THIS SET link. I am still going through all mine and doing this... Also, good point about using flickr as a backup. Pro accounts have unlimited upload, and unlimited storage. So, upload everything to it! Just mark it private if you don't want it showing up to your contacts and the rest of the flickr world.

I'm sure it makes it easier, the larger your collection gets! Just wanted to say that there are a lot of mass-uploading options for those of you trying to upload a camera's worth of photos of your little ones, or vacations up! I'm not affiliated in ANY way, other then being a user, but i use http://www.flock.com/ It's a browser with a built in uploading feature, and it works on windows/mac/linux. There are a lot of other ones, but one of these types of programs can remove a lot of the pain in trying to get large collections up! I have to agree that the US$25 for the pro is a decent price to pay to have unlimited # of collections, as well. :D @Brett: what a great idea!

That way, I can just point people to /photos/inkedmn/tags/ instead of having to keep things separate.

You can set up a "Guest Pass" for them that will allow them to see your photos that are set to "Friends" and/or "Family" only. What you do is go to the page of one of your sets, click on the "Share this set" link, and it will generate a "guest pass" link for you. While at this time you can only create a guest pass on the set level (as opposed to collection or whole photo stream level), if you choose the "Send the link yourself" option, you can also choose to allow that guest pass to give the recipient access to *all* of your protected photos, even the ones not in the set you started at. Check it out, it's pretty neat! :) (Flickr's help section explains this in much clearer detail... but I just wanted to pass it along for those who didn't know. :) ) I myself am not affiliated with Flickr, but I think it's a great site and can't blame the poster of this article for promoting it here. :) > I just wish you could set a password protect feature

I like that even if your friends and family aren't members (and don't want to joint), you can still email them a private URL to the photos. I have some stuff public and the rest is friends only anyway. Most of my family doesn't use the internet, and I don't think they want to see what I ate for supper anyway ;) I like Flickr as well.

Not only is it convenient as you point out but it also gives you an offsite backup of all your photos so you don't have to worry about a hard drive malfunction or house fire destroying all your photos. I just wish you could set a password protect feature you could use on certain sets so all your family didn't have to sign up for an account to view your protected photos. I still highly recommend a Pro account. I’ve been using Flickr Pro for over 2 years now and it’s great.
