I'm looking for a place to share my vacation pictures on the web with
my family and friends using a password. Does anybody have suggestions
for a site?

Thanks

I have been using www.smugmug.com for a short time now, and they seem
to have it together. Email support is VERY FAST should you have a
question about their service.
Granted, it's not a free site like those run by Kodak & Sony et al,
but there is no advertising, and you get no emails asking you to buy
something. The free services also require your visitors to register so
they can get emails also. The free sites are free because they make
their money on the things you buy from them. To me, it's worth the
few bucks a year to avoid the hassles. PW protection is available.
Plus with recurrent billing, your photos are there forever. The free
sites will delete your photos if you don't make a purchase every so
often (to their credit, they do email you with a reminder of this).
