Free photo site

Hi I want to set up a place to give away photos for squidoos and hubs or just sites and want to know if anyone has a good idea on how to go about it. I am thinking I may need a photo shop or some such program on my site. I have a few hundred photos. Is there one I can get as a plugin or maybe will I have to down load kaltura I am hoping for some good advice I want to use this to replace a news article or info articles to get a list going. I am not a great writer or over educated so I want to use what I have.

Hi Mack,
You would need to use your own photo's that you have taken yourself or have a master resale license, because if you give away other peoples photo's that is copyright infringement.
You would need to set up a site with a database etc.. if you were planning on doing this..
like istockphoto.com

Regards
Troy

I don't really know anything about this, but maybe you could set up the photos on pages like articles on blogs. On my website I have a number of clipart images per page that are available to to be downloaded by right clicking. You could possibly set up an opt-in that would then give them the address of pages that had the photos on, perhaps like a separate website.
Just an idea, don't know if that is helpful.

Yes I have my own photos and I get lots of good feed back.How much does it take to set up a photo shop can I do it on a site or does it need a site of its own.
