Let's say I was planning to post images for some of my own creations, I would like to get some feedback from fellow members that have used or still use any one of these image uploading type of sites. Aside from being a "Which is better or worst?" question, I am trying to find out a list of pros & cons.

I have added a poll in case you do not feel like leaving a response.

flickr - Brickshelf - MOCpages

If you know of another similiar site or sites, please let me know.

Sorry for resurrecting but I felt bad no one responded. Definitely flickr is the best even with the changes. I always find it a pain in the butt to use mocpages or more so, brickshelf. They just seem so outdated compared to flickr, and you don't really lose any of the community feeling by going onto flickr even though it's a non-Lego site. Flickr is basically the best thing that every happened for MOCers on the internet aside from forums. You will see people all the time making the little text boxes around a piece asking what is it or saying "NPU!", and it's easy to navigate and organize. You probably already decided, but if you haven't go with flickr!

After foolin' around with each, I came to the same conclusion more or less. MOCpages kind of works but ads amongst other things seem to cause pages to take forever on loading, and Brickshelf seems like your bare essentials of an image uploading site which is fine but the site experience as a whole feels jumbled up and it's difficult to find anything. Flickr on its worst day can be a little slow, maybe a tad frustrating, and that's about it. A lot of the comments I have read from many MOCers in those Lego Idea Books and other similar novels seem to agree Flickr has been the best thing for MOCs and building, period.
