Flickr seems to be blowing up. Most of my sidebar co-bloggers seem to be using it, it was just acquired by Yahoo!, and I'm seeing it pop up on independent news sites as a means of linking to picture references. It's fast, bloggable, scalable, and offers tons of space (if you're a pro user!). Apparently it's miles better than WebShots and all the other competitors, judging by general user consensus I've been picking up through the grapevine. I'm reasonably happy with it--it links in to iPhoto (although not flawlessly), offers several means of uploading--including from picture phones--and offers a number of other goodies, especially the friends/contacts/groups/message features.
So if you're looking for a photo site, give it a gander. The free accounts are limited, but once version 1.0 is released this summer, the company vows to increase space for all accounts, free and pro alike.
