I can lose hours of my day if I don't watch my clickin' in there... But still, I have to agree with some of the others here; your photos are just too great for not showing to the world, and when it comes to photography online, Flickr is just unrivaled. Your site design is fantastic too by the way! I totally agree with you, Flickr is amazingly good!

You can restrict access to the full-size images quite easily. If they continue to get a lot of page views, you could probably sell prints off your site. The flash galleries on your site are sweet though. If your photos are popular on Flickr, why not run with it? You can restrict access to the full-size images quite easily.

I email them straight in from the handset and it's kinda cool... 'bigger' photo's tend to just go into iPhoto unless I want to share them... stick with it Ben! flickr is a mobile phone photo repository for me pretty much. it gives you something to do with the pics you take with your phone… I email them straight in from the handset and it's kinda cool…

Not familiar about how it works in England but wouldn't that help protect your data rights? I recall sometime ago being involved in a discussion

I derive some real satisfaction from seeing my photos there, and I enjoy looking at photos, both by people I know and people I don't. The initial frenzy has largely died down, though; these days I don't feel compelled to check for comments on my photos all that often (though it's always exciting, still, when people notice my shots)...
