Take the 2-minute tour ×  My company uses flickr and picasa web
albums as poor man's content delivery networks (CDN) for image
hosting, but I'm curious if anyone has any recommendations on
any other services that might be worth looking into, paid and
free?  Preferably something that has an API so that it can be
integrated discreetly on the backend as a WordPress plugin or
for other development frameworks.  A CDN such as Amazon is
cheap, and it works, but the lack of a photo-centric API is what
prevents me from using it for general usage.  share|improve this
question can you please explain what you mean by 'photo-centric
API' ... ?? –  Pure.Krome Sep 2 '10 at 0:41 Is the Flickr API
not sufficient? flickr.com/services/api –  James Lawruk Sep 2

for something with more controls over things like sizing and
compression, etc. Additionally, when I check the speed of my
sites, the images from Flickr are consistently the slowest
things on the site. Picasa
