Sites that only accept credit cards - any way round?

tangerinebreem · Sites that only accept credit cards - any way round?

Is there any way round these - I want a flickr pro account but they only accept credit cards and I don't have one and don't want one. Aside from getting someone else to get it for me and giving them the cash is there a workround for this particular logjam in my river of creativity?

I suspect the answer is no.

i have bought credit on skype by telling them that i want to pay by bank transfer, you can do it on the cash machines in korea, but if you can't you will be able to do it at your bank, paypal will probably do the same, and everything on the web accepts paypal. just make a paypal account, transfer a fiddy into it......

I'm not sure flickr does, I'm pretty sure it's credit card or nothing - I'll go and double check.

Apparantly they are going to bring more payment options in soon. I'll just have to wait I think.

you can upload as many photos as you like to TTheCoolestGalleryEver

it's not as good as flickr for uploading or meeting people, but you do have an unlimited account

I just want the flickr one cos I like the way it works and the fact you sometimes get some useful feedback.

That'd be coolio Ninj - How do I get access - I tired my wordpress password/id and board one but no dice.

Ninjadmin

yeah, flickr rocks, i got invited to catgirl groups and stuff like that

but the 200 photos limit sucks if you want to use i properly

tangerinebreem

Yeah. I like the fact you can get some quite harsh critiques aswell if you want it. It's the best site as far as I can see cos my stuff isn't really deviant art type work and photobucket and others don't have good enough tagging/search functions.

Ninjadmin

i've never really used the forum on there, i tend to stick to networks thing

i can't get away with deviant, it is god, but this whole 'write a sumary' and 'choose a category' shit doesn't appeal

photobucket i have never used, i probably shold, i just like yahoo cos it has my email, messenger etc all contained in one place (and i can even play chess on there

find a mate with a credit card and paypal them.

I'll buy you an account if you like. You can post/paypal me the cash.

That's a really kind offer, thanks. - I'm going to wait a wee bit to see if their promise of introducing more ways to pay actually happens...
