Building a community photography site, where can I store my photos online?

I am in the process of laying down the requirements for a photography community site. An important feature to investigate would be allowing more fotos/account than rival sites around my country's internet. What are the possibilities out there? Should I go for something like amazon S3, or is there anything that offers more image-related features? I am mostly interested in low price per GB (storage and transfer out).

Amazon s3 is a good choice . Be sure to understand how to use it and put some cap on the bandwidth and storage used To avoid bad surprise with the cost. A good approach would be to scale down the pictures after upload and use the smaller one on your community website to save bandwidth , then only request the large one when a user click on it.
