Mount a show at your local library. That'll keep you busy for awhile.
Or there is a site called SmugMug where you upload photos and can make each set either public or restricted to people you share the link with. If you want, you can put a price on any of them and people buy a print from SmugMug and you get a %.
Tin: Been there, done that in both cases. I am currently investigating the various online options. This started recently because I'm not happy with the quality of my Picasa site and wanted to do a makeover with something a bit more visually impressive. Re. the library, this initially started many years ago when I received a commission from the government of Jamaica to present an exhibition of photos of children as part of an International Youth Festival that was held in Kingston. I had lots of images so I put together a quite impressive display, so said the Daily Gleaner. It comprised a lot of large [30 by 40"] panels, matted and framed which went on to be displayed in several locations in the US. When we moved up here 15 odd years ago we moved to a house with a barn, we unloaded everything into the barn and went to bed exhausted, that night it poured down and the barn roof leaked, the lot were totally ruined; I don't have the urge to re-do them in print format but the internet is intriguing plus I've gone through my files and found hundreds of previously unused images.

Like the second one. You should Flickr em all or something
Actually I'm wondering what I should do. It's too good an archive to let go to waste.

How about select some images for a digital slideshow and do a soundtrack for it from some of your jazz and stuff.
Great minds think alike! Soon come.
