Create your own flash based portfolio website

I have recently revamped my own photography website using a great free website builder called Wix. It allows you to build flash based website using simple templates and drag and drop components, resulting in a very professional slick looking site and no knowledge of difficult techie code needed. Import photos direct from your Flickr account or PC with ease and host the finished website on wix or on your own hosting website. Very simple to use and I have to say, with only a few hours spent setting the templates up, I got a very professional looking portfolio to showcase my photography! Take a look!

Onexposure - 1x photo site

Onexposure is an artsproject and a photo community with a difference. Take the most talented photobloggers of the web and other famous photographers as well as many serious amateurs, select their best work and put it all in one place - there you have Onexposure.

Everyone is welcome to contribute, but every photo is screened, which means it has to be approved by an editor before being published. Onexposure is like a constantly evolving high class photo gallery with new art every day.

We don't judge over good and bad, or over art, we merely decide if a photo fits into our gallery or not. Like in an arts gallery, you can buy many of the photos as prints and hang them on your wall.

Onexposure also offers a premium membership, which includes unlimited image hosting and your own professional homepage with complete control over what photos to display.

Migrate or back up your photos to another online service with Migratr

Windows only: Freeware application Migratr moves your digital photos from one photo sharing service to another, metadata and all. We're pretty into Flickr here at Lifehacker HQ, but Flickr's free account only serves up 100MB of storage space, so we can understand if, for example, you want to move to the 1GB pastures of an integrated Google service like Picasa Web Albums. But since no one wants to lose all the metadata they've plugged into another site, Migratr preserves all of this when you migrate your pics. Migratr supports importing and exporting to and from Flickr, 23HQ, Zoomr, SmugMug, and Picasa; it preserves each photo's title, description, tags, and albums. Migratr is freeware, Windows only....Here
