useful - for people that want to discuss images in forums

I know less about Flckr but have been using pbase for years.  I'm

Subject: [IxDA Discuss] online photo galleries

hello all -

i am curious as to your thoughts on online photo galleries.

when i say photo galleries i am speaking of both:
1. the management of personal galleries (eg. kodak gallery) and
2. viewing public galleries (eg. 'photos of the day' on any online
publication)

good examples? bad examples? why? one technology vs another?

thanks for any ideas you all may have!

happy holidays,
valerie
