These replies are very helpful. Without taking time to research (guess) and start trial and error, instead you are helping me understand the real issues.
I've heard Imgur suggested before. Maybe I'll try there next. It looks like my solution is...
1- wait until the beginning of each month, when the bandwidth download "limit" is reset and starts again, (viewer's computers downloading the myriad of pics in the current "page" of my post they are viewing) so that all the existing stuff might be seen again, for part of the month. ;)
2- Start now at a new site I am happier with (functionality - maybe Imgur) and just go that route from here on out, provided they have a similar bandwidth download limit, and not MUCH less, for example.
3- Transfer old stuff over manually as desired, or leave it all as is and "well enough alone".
or, I could just let it all stay "as is" and for part of each month, my stuff will be view-able.
or, I could pay the price for a ticket to the show.
But the real answer is, "it appears no software or app company has made such a beast. Seamless transfer (automated "kill the original link and change the link words to the new software link words - based on the picture folders structure which exists and are copied to the software's base "library").
Seems like a market to tap? I mean I don't know exactly how these companies make money, but are apparently doing so, without the user paying. Facebook for example. Imgur? Photobucket is almost unusable due to their advertising method.
Sears also has an awesome online shopping capability, but they're going under (management, too much invested in brick and morter, inability to take advantage of online shopping mindset). And yet Amazon is one of the biggest money makers. Of course they're doing a bunch of that though Prime subscriptions, so there is some example of user fees, not just advertisement.
Thanks again folks. Still want additional thoughts or suggestions.
