Free websites for photos

Which sites are good for uploading and keeping your personal photos? I need the site to maintain the original size of each photo which are 5 Mp at most. I have just signed up with webshots but the response times are slow.

KIA, picassa downsize your photos to 1600 pixels which would be roughly 2.5 Mp. Webshots does downsize too but to 2400 pixels which is fine for me. Flickr downsizes to 1024 pixels and limits your uploads to 20MB per month. Thanks for the links guys.

discobay: I think you can upload full size to Scrapbook, Livejournal's photo service. I'm not sure because I always choose the resize option, to speed my uploads. I use their Windows XP publishing wizard, so I can use the "publish to web" function to upload direct from Windows Explorer.

A downside is you'd need to sign up for a sponsored LJ account (but there's no reason you'd need to use it).

I know this doesn't answer your question DB but I have a Flickr Pro account and think its awesome. 25 USD a year is good value to me (I've put nearly 1000 full res images on there in less than a year).

I use www.bubbleshare.com because there is a direct plugin from iphoto (mac) to bubbleshare making uploads easier. There also doesn't appear to be a limit, and they have some neat features.
