DH and I have been using Sony's Imagestation for years and their site now reads that it's about to close.
They have an easy transition to Snapfish, but I've heard mixed reviews on it.
Which do you like?
For example, Snapfish, Shutterfly, Photobucket, etc.
TIA...

Snapfish doesn't work on CC anymore. I use Flickr.

I use Snapfish for photos I actually want to buy and Photobucket for CC and other online ventures (although I'm not in love with Photobucket's handling of .png files)

I use dropshots.com
I really like it because it is easy to upload...just drag your pictures to the dropbox and it uploads automatically.

Photobucket, because they don't require you to buy prints to keep an account active.

I've used Snapfish for almost 4 years now and love it. I put all my photos of the kids up there and send the albums to family and friends. Their pictures are cheap, good quality, and ship quickly. I had one instance where my ordered photos never arrived and I was given those pictures again, along with several free ones (I think the same amt. as the ones I had ordered).
I use Photobucket for things on CC and LJ, though and like that as well.

I use Shutterfly and have never had any problems. My sister-in-law uses Walgreens and likes it a lot. I'm about to have to order some prints from them so she better be right. :)

i don't post pics online. so i use Snapfish. and have no complaints.
i've heard that if you have too many albums in your acct. they'll start deleting them...but i keep mine pretty organized so i'm not sure if thats true or not....

Photobucket. I have bought prints and cards at Kodak, Snapfish and Shutterfly. All were good.

I use Gallery (http://gallery.menalto.com/) on my own website. If i want to make a photobook or whatever, I do it through iPhoto.
I find the online photo sites that my friends use annoying as there is no way to save hi-res images and print the pictures myself. You have to order photos through their site. I know its how the site makes their money, but I still find it annoying.
With Gallery anyone can save a full sized image and print it our themselves, or they can pay to get the photos printed through shutterfly.com or photoworks.com.

I use snapfish for ordering purposes and to send to family.
I use flickr for posting online. And I don't post every picture online that I take, so it's not very many.
Shutterfly for ease and for purchasing. Photobucket for posting online.

Flickr for everything. I can print stuff from there at Target. The quality is not fabulous but good enough for the grandparents. I also use Flickr's 3rd party vendors for printing photobooks, calling cards, etc. I am about to get these sticker books for DS: http://www.moo.com/flickr/

I use Kodakgallery (formerly Ofoto) for online albums and for purchasing prints.
For the purposes of posting here, I use Photobucket.

I use Snapfish for buying prints, Photobucket for posting online. Haven't had any problems with either site.

I do the same thing. I really like Snapfish. I haven't had a problem with either site.

For online posting, I like Flickr a lot, though I pay for the premium. For prints I usually use Shutterfly or Mpix.

I wouldn't advise this, but here's what I use:
Kodakgallery for sharing photos with friends (because that's where my friends send their photos from- they all have accounts & it's easy to share)
Snapfish for ordering them (better photo quality than Kodakgallery & great prices)
Photobucket for posting photos on CC (because they're one of the only sites that allows linking)
Flickr for posting artsy photos and getting feedback from photographers
Seems like I should probably combine something, eh? :o
eta: oh, and I use mypublisher.com for printing albums

Photobucket for personal & posting on CC/LJ and Shutterfly to make albums and send updated albums out to friends/family.

I use flickr for sharing/storing, and I use costcophotocenter.com for printing. I upload them, have them printed for pennies, and pick them up the next time I'm at/near Costco.

For posting online I use Flickr (I was using Imagestation before)
For sharing with friends and family I use Snapfish (b/c that seems to be the most convenient site for people I know - as in they already have accounts there and are used to using it)
For prints I use mpix.

Snapfish, Shutterfly and Photobucket. I need to merge my Shutterfly stuff into Snapfish, though.

I've been using imagestation for years too, and I'm so annoyed about this! Especially since their options to transfer your pictures are either one that doesnt allow online posting, or the other that has a monthly picture quota! UGH!
Now every picture I've ever posted on here is no longer going to be viewable :mad:

I use zenfolio. I have also used snapfish and shutterfly. But I found that I didn't like the fact that people could order the pictures I was sharing. I found out my MIL was ordering all my prints and that sort of bugged me. Plus my FIL was forwarding my pics to EVERYONE. So with zenfolio I can share pics and decide to let people order the print, save the print, forward the print, put passwords on prints/collections etc... I guess I am a control freak! I also use photobucket to post pics on CC/LJ.

I use Flickr and pay for the premium account so I don't have any upload or storage limits to worry about.
I have a Photobucket account, but I'm slowly starting to put my stuff on Flickr and getting away from using it - there's nothing wrong with Photobucket - I just want to keep my photos in one place instead of all over the 'net.

I use Photobucket for CC pictures.
I use Shutterfly for sharing/ordering. At first our families were wanting us to send them the printable digital picture so they could print them off. I finally was like, I don't have the time or the space to do this. So I post all the pictures I am going to order to shutterfly and then share them with the family. If they want to order them (and my MIL and SIL do) then they can.
