  Hey hey,

  I just started a photoblog and I was wondering about the next thing.

  I only have about 3? gig to upload pictures but I think at some point I’ll reach that.

  So, is it better or not to upload my pictures to Photobucket and link them to my blog or not?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can use either method. Here is the link to the support entry instructions for uploading into wordpress.com http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/

  With wordpress’s flash uploader (which is the default, you can choose multiple images to upload, but it’s suggested you keep it to 10 or less at a time. Sometimes with slow internet connections it will produce a timeout and not all the images will upload.

  But if I use a link, than I will not use the storage space, right?
