"why the pushback to using the Net54 pic hosting?"
There is almost no upside and it is probably less convenient. Hosting images on Picassa means I don't have to use any of my own space on my computer and I can use those images at no cost on Net54 and ebay when I want to share or sell my cards.
Also, based on the initial purpose of this thread it seems like there are people that are confused about Net54 pic hosting that require attention from the moderators. Picassa is so easy to use -- download Picassa, open Picassa, click on images you want to upload, click upload, open images online, click "Link to this photo," copy link and paste it into this thread. And next time you want to sell cards on ebay, you can paste them into the description without getting charged by ebay for having to host your images.
