Yahoo! Photos was a photo sharing service laucnhed on March 28, 2000 and owned by Yahoo!, designed specifically for Yahoo! users. Users created individual photo albums, categorized their photos and placed them in the corresponding albums. Users were also able to set access of their albums by publishing them for the viewing pleasure of everyone, disabling access, or marking them as private folders for their own viewing.

The service had unlimited storage for photos, but it was required that photos have the jpeg/jpg extension. In an effort to make it simpler and more efficient, Yahoo had an uploader tool to drag and drop the pictures from one's computer to Yahoo! Photos web page. In March 2005 Yahoo! purchased Flickr, and closed Yahoo! Photos on September 20, 2007 at 9:00 PM (PDT).
