Thanks to Phoebe

Free services can be nice, but they can also be a trap. For example, I signed up for a Hotmail account many years ago. Weaknesses abound, yet I have become adjusted to it and continue to tolerate it. Properly, I should research a better option and make the move, but that takes activation energy. All of my photos for my blog get hosted on Flickr. Until now, I have been using the basic service at no charge.

Being limited to only three photo sets has been the most difficult constraint; however, I have also been bumping against the monthly upload limit. Photos I wanted to upload were accumulating faster than I was putting shots on the server. One user, “Phoebe Photo”, was gracious enough to give me a Pro Account upgrade out of the blue. I think she enjoys my art carved manholes and was urging me to get them online.

She takes interesting shots of what is going on around her. Quilts, flowers, and craft supplies have been featured in some of the eye-catching shots. Take a look.

Thanks Phoebe.
