Title: Alternative to flickr?
Post by: voronwe on February 23, 2016, 03:05:34 PM
Hi

as I can not access my flickr-account anymore (Thanks to the strange policy of yahoo, who always want's to send me an SMS for confirmation, but I never recieve one), I have the question:

Is there anything like flickr where I can present my pictures? Would be good if it is something where I can put my pictures to different Albums and Subalbums.

There are a number of choices. I prefer SmugMug https://www.smugmug.com/, although it's not free. It has different plans for different levels of users, including professionals. Photos (and videos) look great there, and there are many customization options.

I prefer "koken" and my own webspace. Not free either and you are not involved in a photocommunity.

Software can be found here: http://koken.me/

That sounds interesting, I think I will give it a try.

Thanks to both of you for the recommendations
