The Big Picture Library

How many of you have photo collections online? Most of you are aware of flickr, yahoo photos ......
The Big Picture Library is one of them, which gives you a decent way to display your albums online. On loading up the page one can't help but notice the fluid and professional design of the site.
After the introduction you can click any of the photos to access its menu area. Click the red picture with the pencil first to have a look at the templates you can choose from. They look pretty professional, and loading your images up and using that template couldn't be simpler.
You'll need an account, which is free for personal use, then go to the library manager to begin uploading your pics - you can display up to 250 images. You can do this a number of ways, including using an FTP client, or with Internet Explorer you can simply drag and drop them into the browser window! All you have to do now is hit the publish button and your pics will be displayed online using your user name as an extension after bigpicturelibrary.com.
