Best Web Resource for Photo-Sharing with Students/Families

We are mostly a mac building and our teachers use iphoto to upload their photos, print and to create slideshows. We'd like to share the photos with students/families without having to burn a CD or upload the slideshows to our website. What is your favorite web resource for posting slideshows or pictures to share with families?

Our school uses Gallery which can be password protected. I'm not sure if we pay for the service or not, but it's a great way to organize and archive the pictures from year to year.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I will investigate these resources to find one that will match the needs of our teachers. Thanks again.

Another vote here for Picasa Web Albums - Albums can be made "Unlisted" (not publicly searchable) and accessible to only those who have the direct link (send in an email or link it on your class site - assuming your site not "public"). You can also embed a picasa slideshow in a Google Site which is a great addition for Google Apps users. Super easy to use if you build/organize and upload your album using the free picasa software.
