there is quite a choice and the main suspects have already been mentioned.

But have you considered the following:

Are you intending to have your own website when you leave college?

Why not buy your own domain name now. They are very cheap and also buy some web hosting. The two together should be less than £60 a year so around £1 a week for good quality hosting. That gives you the option to do whatever you want and there is a host of free software out there.

for example, Wordpress which is free and is really easy to install. Infact most webhosts provide an auto install feature for it.
With Wordpress you will have access to the widest range of templates and a vast array of plugins for photo albums etc. And you can use its blogging features but also use it as your website all under your very own domain name. Its very mature and has a very large user community.

But on the other hand, if you're not ready for that then what the others have suggested.

p.s. install of wordpress is a two minute job. Well maybe longer if you haven't done it before and need to read up on anything.

p.p.s I recommend Zen Internet for web hosting. and also if you do go down this route get a domain name which ends in .co.uk

p.p.p.s And remember that putting your images into sites like tumblr and flickr etc gives them rights to use your images
