Right now I am using PutFile but I want something better that can maybe hold bigger files (2MB in my case)

well you put this in the pro category, and well, if you're a pro, you can afford your own host. godaddy.com is like 3.50 a month for 5gb of hosting, and you can put whatever size files you want up

So get your hosting sorted before the website is finished.

I am also looking into using flickr. I am going backpacking around Europe and want a place I will be able to store pictures and redownload them with high quality. Do you have these capabilities with flickr?

Thanks

Fotki.com gets my vote. It can save at 100%. Most others like Photobucket etc cannot. The picture is downsized etc. Also its free

Last week I got a flickr Pro account at $25/year. I uploaded abount 700 7mg files which I can leave there for as long as I choose to maintain the account. The free account has limitations that weren't sufficient for my purposes. I learned that some businesses' security programs block flickr so some people may have trouble accessing it from a company computer.

If you want an album type thing, you should try out Google's Picasa albums, especially if you are a windows user(the Google Picasa Viewer). Its a very easy especially if you use their viewer to upload multiple photos.

250mb storage free.
And if you need more space.
6.25GB ($25 per year)
25GB ($100 per year)
100GB ($300 per year)
250GB ($500 per year)

No bandwidth costs. Uhh, shows EXIF data. Very easy and cool to use.

Only downside would be no embedding your photos like you can with photobucket or imageshack or smugmug.
