It looks like Yahoo! Photos is shutting down.
Yahoo! sent out notices today for users to transfer any photos they had in the service to another site. A little background: Yahoo! bought Flickr over two years ago. And they are now beginning the process to get users to transfer their pictures.
To quote from their release, "We will officially close Yahoo! Photos on Thursday, September 20, 2007, at 9 p.m. PDT. Until then, we are offering you the opportunity to move to another photo sharing service (Flickr, KODAK Gallery, Shutterfly, Snapfish, or Photobucket) ..."
Hey! Wait a second! What about AOL Pictures?!?
This is a shameless plug to suggest that if you have photos on Yahoo! that you transfer them to AOL Pictures. You can upload, share, store, order prints and have them mailed to you or have them sent to any Walgreen's for pickup, create albums, make all kinds of cool gifts from your photos and much more.
Check it out.
