Question: Free Photo Sharing Sites

I like Flickr and Picasa Web Albums but I've just about reached my free upload limit. I'm a cheap guy who doesn't like to unnecessarily pay for things and I'd rather not get stuck with a service which will be hard to give up. So now I'm thinking I'd better come up with a really good option. There are a number of services out there, I know. I have an ImageShack and a PhotoBucket account, and they are OK but I don't like the navigation and they have a busy appearance and they are perhaps a bit slow.

I need the site to be:

- totally free (at least up to 1 GB)
- clean and easy on the eye
- logic in its navigation
- rather fast than slow

Do you have a favorite to recommend?

UPDATES:
First suggestion is in from josephzohn: eSnips
(and I actually already have an account there! I forgot about it.)
Update on this: I've tried it but it doesn't seem to allow linking. I'm sure it's very good in other ways like sharing with other eSnippers.

Blogger: Where do all the images go? Part 2

A couple of months ago I put out a question to the readers of Martin Klasch and it is now time to follow up on that. The main question was:

"If you, like me, publish most of your images in your blog by using the upload button in the blogger interface - in other words not using a separate tool - then where do all the images go?"

So, I kind of wanted to know if my blog images were collected somewhere that I and others could find them. My kind readers mrdantefontana, fisk, iluvnufc, arthur ignatowski, modmom, thombeau were all kind enough to participate in the discussion.

Iluvnufc was the first one to mention Picasa Web Albums and sure enough the answer to my question was that...

"...all the photos you've uploaded since December (2006) will appear in an album there, and we're working on migrating your older photos as well. (It'll take a while though - there are a lot of them.)" - Blogger Buzz.

What do you know? There they are!! Thanks to my readers for solving this mystery. Hopefully someone else got their questions answered by this too.

Here is the link to my open image galleries by the way (Your galleries are otherwise closed by default), and below you'll find links to my three open galleries and also an embedded slide show of the Martin Klasch images.
