Looking for a free photo site with slide show captions

Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim (More info?)

It seems to me someone posted a screenshot slideshow that I liked earlier
this month on a free photo site and I forgot to bookmark it.

What I'm looking for is a site that will let you post large images and
captions for slideshows.

Photosite does large photos but no captions.

Webshots does nice captions for slideshows but the images are about half
sized.

Photobucket also has small photos for slideshows.


Anyone?

That would be:
http://www.flickr.com

It even has a handy utility to upload the pictures or you can do it the
direct method.

Hum... I don't get it.. I'm looking at Dude's slideshow and I don't get
anything I want:

The pictures are small and the captions are not there during the slideshow
mode. In the regular view mode you have to click "all sizes" to see a
bigger picture.

Thanks, but no... I want a web based slide show with the ability to post hi
res photos and captions.

I guess I've discovered an untapped market... anybody wanna finance a
Internet startup company?

You can do all that on Webshots, but the premium membership isn't free. I
do feel, however, that I get my money's worth. Their quality of
reproduction on the web and their slideshow feature is pretty good. Hey, if
Quilly and me like it, it's got to be good.....or not...I dunno.

Try a basic free membership for a while and see if you like it. By the way,
I'm not on commission...just wanna help.

Webshots is close... but even your 2400x1800 images are displayed at around
600x800. You have to press "view full size" to get the big picture. And I
pressed "View Slideshow" and I never get a slideshow.

I really like Photosites slide show, but... no captions... click "view
slideshow" at the top:

Whoa! I was wrong... I just saw an album with captions down a the bottom
of a Photosite slideshow... I guess I'll have to read the fine manual.
