    Hi, I was doing some reading and thinking perhaps switching to flickr will help me. I have a lot of photos I want to load on my site and we doing some updates and I think I refreshed and went over the limit. I have several colour galleries and also item pics. Is there anything I can do that keep with google photos, or just switching to another cloud is better? Is flickr the best for a lot of volume or is there a better one?

    Failed to get data. Error:
    Quota exceeded for quota metric 'All requests' and limit 'All requests per day' of service 'photoslibrary.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number:215829886737'.

    You can use Flickr – its API is more flexible and less restrictive in terms of limits. Keep in mind, though, that even Flickr imposes limits, but at 3600 per hour, you are placed better than Google, and Flickr treats API calls differently from Google. SmugMug too is a lot better than Google.

    But, there is a different aspect that you have to consider – the limits on your storage itself. Depending on how much storage you need, you have to factor that cost into your total requirement, since the free plans for Flickr and SmugMug put some caps on how much you can load to the platform.

    Thanks, I am using flickr for some parts that won’t go over teh 1000 limit ever and are more long term. Then the daily photo dump via google, if they overlimit its no big deal for the day. I can always just pay for extra flickr storage and transfer there later. I think smugmug is linked there as well, so will check into that as well. Glad your system supports multiple input from different sources. super handy. thanks
