Re: Google closing Picasa
I have shared photos using Photobucket for many years. The service can have its hiccups from time to time but it has been generally good ..apart from the adverts some visitors can get when they go there. I paid a subscription this year. Just something I start doing when I've been using a service freely for ages.
Another option that may not have been thought about
: ISPs might offer some personal web space to their customers. This being included in the package at no extra cost. Virgin Media gives 200 megabytes of space. Not the same as the gigabytes some places offer but 200mB is enough to store quite a few photos. My web site is stored on Virgin Media's web space. I'll sometimes give links to photos on there because I know people won't see any ads. The link below leads to an image on my VM web space:

To get it to display as an image, just surround the link with image tags.
Might be worth finding out if your ISP offers free web space and if so, learn how to upload images to it.
