Re: Image hosting sites.
Like aam1234 mentioned above, SmugMug does have different "flavors" of subscriptions you can buy, and they run from simple image hosting to full-blown "website" looks like I mentioned above. With the top-level account at SmugMug, you can completely customize the look, and they have awesome help available if you have questions and want to know how to make something work.
It also offers the chance for you to sell prints and other items directly from your site. You upload the pictures and set the prices for each item. People can buy whatever they want, whenever they want and it gets shipped direct to them. SmugMug will pay you the difference between your cost to print and the cost you placed on the item. So you set your profit margin.
SmugMug is one of very few that can take you from the bottom to the top as far as "image hosts" goes. Your own website can too, but some things done by yourself aren't worth it in the long run sometimes...
