Megaupload was taken down last week, much to the anger of people who did use the service to store files that actually belonged to them. And yes, there were lots of people who used the service to keep copies of files that were their own, or to collaborate with colleagues. In fact, many have lost files that were irreplaceable. It remains to be seen whether the FBI will let people access their accounts and get all their files back again. Some believe that’s going to happen when they have deleted all the offending files from Megaupload’s servers. Which is anything from good news, as that can take years and years.
The damage’s already done. The only thing to do now is to begin looking for sites to fill the void left by Megaupload. And as far as sharing photos legally goes, then Photry is a good alternative. It’s a photo sharing service that comes with 1GB of free storage, and that can keep all of your photos in their original format. JPG, GIF, BMP… Photry has no trouble handling files of any kind. In fact, it can even handle RAW files. It can store everything on its servers, and you can download any photo of yours from anywhere you can access the Internet.
