Best place to host your pictures
I manage a few photoblogs and my bandwidth consumption is pretty high.
Can you guys suggest a reasonable photo hosting site that gives unmetered bandwidth with good storage space.
I am planning to go with PhotoBucket.com ($25 a year), but the 5 GB upload limit is not something that I am content with.
Any suggestions?

As per the TOS, you are no allowed to directly link the images without a link back and I don't want to many outbounds on my pages.

Remember! Flickr Community Guidelines specify that if you post a Flickr photo on an external website, the photo must link back to its photo page.

I was thinking of taking a PRO account there but after reading that I thought otherwise.
Flickr was indeed my first choice

You really should look into buying some shared hosting or a private server. If you are getting decent traffic then it will probably be worth it in the long run, plus you will appreciate it's flexibility.
If not, see if Picasa has anything to offer you.

I used Fotki.com. $25 a year for unlimited storage and unlimited bandwidth. I haven't had any issues with them and I've been a customer for over 3 years now.
