    Which overseller has the best reputation on WHT?

    I wish to host gigs and gigs of family pics. There wont be too many visitors prolly like 1-5/day.
    I'd want the hosting to be reliable since I want my family to be able to view the pics anytime they want

    PS Ill be making a 1 year review of ASO a few days from now

    That would pretty much be Hostgator... without a doubt the most reputationally sound overseller here, despite a hit or three against them. And they are a really good host, overall.

    Be sure to check their TOS before signup, some wont allow you to use your account to just store the pics.

    Based on the posts I've seen around here it's probably hostgator or dreamhost. I'm sure there are others but those are the ones I see people defend a lot and you don't see many complaints about them.

    hostgator. I have 16GBs of family photos on a gallery2 script and have had no complaints. low server loads, 100% uptime, super fast servers and support. No complaints.

    Dreamhost is okay. You'll get downtime (I had 99.8% with them), fair support, and fair speeds. They're good for people who need to host A LOT of files or use a LOT of bandwidth.

    Hostgator probably fits you best.
    I'm currently hosting with: hostgator

    if you're just hosting pictures, take a look at smugmug. it is an awesome photo storage/sharing service that is well loved. you can brand it as your own domain if you wish.

    Overselling is a thing which might give you some troubles in future and you have to understand it, and it anyway it doesn't not depend on the company which are doing overselling.

    Why don't you try flickr? It's specially made for photo sharing
    For 25$/year you get unlimited features. I have a few gigs there uploaded myself.
