I'm looking for a photo-hosting service with few/no known security concerns, where you can make albums private (ideally password-protected, ideally not the kind where you have to have an account on the site to view private albums), also where you don't have to click the button for 'female' or 'male'.
Sites that I'm aware of are things like Picasa (doesn't seem to have the sort of private albums I want) and Photobucket (has that sort of private album, but not so much on the gender thing).
I know DeviantArt just went through the whole gender thing, but I don't know about private albums and that's not quite the sort of thing I want anyway. Mostly I have pictures of friends, of various events (tea party!), and of me wearing nice clothes.
What site am I missing? There must be something out there.
... see, I am contemplating moving all my stuff off Facebook, as the site does its tenth redesign and I have continuing itchiness about the whole privacy/security thing. But I won't until I have full functionality elsewhere--I don't mind having to have accounts at several sites, but if I'm up and moving off Facebook, I want those sites to be good ones, darnit.
For me, full functionality means some kind of restrictable photo-sharing thing, microblogging, and blogging. Blogging is what LJ/DW are for; microblogging, I think I have a line on something, but I also might end up on Twitter. Restrictable photo-sharing... anyone?
