Kmar: Truth is my Bitch; +5,695|6818|132 and Bush

I've found another up and coming photo site. This one looks like a real competitor to flickr. It certainly provides more in the way of sociability. However, as most of you know, what makes flickr the go to site of choice is the huge community of photographers. I'd like to see some of that popularity migrate to this new site. Yahoo scares me sometimes. Their future has been questionable, and they really haven't shown an interest in further developing flickr. I won't go into the fact that it's becoming an major image-jacking hub now. I'll just say don't underestimate your work. It's best to watermark your photos if you want them protected. Photo-jacking can happen at any site, but flickr is notoriously slow to react on reports of other accounts claiming photo credit. But enough about flickr...

I submit to you http://500px.com/ .
Give it a try and let me know what you think. There's already a bunch of very talented photographer there. You need only check the popular page to figure that out.

If you make an account please let me know and I will update this post.

I think for free you are limited to 20 photos a week. I kind of like that idea since it will encourage people to upload only their best.

Is there an "overall limit" like flickr had?

edit: has.

You are clicking "Select files" right? ..lol

Kimmmmmmmz, just flickr, Smugmug, and this site. They each have their own highlights.
Flickr = Established community
Smugmug = 100% quality, no image degradation, marketability
500px = layout, social interaction

i don't think i'll leave flickr yet, my account's active through May anyways. but after test driving it a week, it is inspiring me to go through my recent work, and find the best. i've made a collection, and it looks pretty nice on my Xoom.

my wife would feel abandoned . . . she passed me in overall views, and has plenty of friends in the Coca-cola group.

but like you said, 500px makes you want to show your best.
