Fille, true. I have a Flickr-account, though I caved in and paid for the pro-version. The free version isn’t bad, but has some limits, though I suggest LX might take a look and see if it fits his taste. It’s all kinds of stuff there, so it’s not just photos.
I got a free account at DevArt, because I need to see the pictures that are ‘blocked’ (to non-members).
