I need a good host for photos. I usually shoot 100+ photos at each show I go to, and would like to be able to host them somewhere, but I've never really looked into it. Less $ is better, but I don't know what it might cost. Any suggestions?

I've had good luck with Image Shack and Img Spot , but I haven't tried any of the pay sites.
I still use imagestation
flickr and smugmug
Have you tried flickr? It seems to be very popular. Yahoo! recently purchased it. Basic accounts are still free and there seems to be a lot of slick features.
I’ve been using smugmug for a while (thanks RSO 34 for the tip). It’s not free, but it is very inexpensive. The packages start at $30 per year and include unlimited storage space (there is a bandwidth limit, but it’s very generous). The interface is very easy to use for the average user but also has a lot of powerful features. Their support is excellent.
My smugmug account also serves as a secondary backup for all my pictures. Should my hard drive ever crash, I can order a set of DVDs with all the pictures I’ve uploaded.
