Web Savvy: The Best Unfree Stuff Online

These great sites and services will lighten your wallet--and that's okay.

Gimme Five: Online Photo Services

These sites will process your film and store your images online. You can also upload image files from a digital camera and get prints. Photo services make terrific use of the Web, and they're cheaper than traditional photo shops.

  1. Ofoto: It's a Kodak company, so you can assume it will survive a shakeout. Nice photo editing software.

  2. PhotoWorks: Great deal on a "Year in Photos" CD. PhotoWorks isn't just a Web company--it also has retail stores in the Pacific Northwest.

  3. Shutterfly: This is one of the pricier photo sites, but it comes with good online photo advice.

  4. Snapfish: Your first three rolls are developed for free, and developing costs ($3 for a 36-exposure roll) include prints. A great deal.

  5. Yahoo Photos: Quick-loading site, with film processing done by PhotoWorks, but the online storage space (30MB) is a bit skimpy.
