Summary
No free service, can not order prints, very klunky interface, requires users to upload one image at a time, not intuitive at all. A complete waste of time.

Strengths
Didn't notice any of merit.

Weaknesses
Klunky interface, unintuitive and confusing. Upload single image at a time. Not clear how to invite or share with friends and family. Not clear if you can order prints.

Summary
PBase.com is a great site. The interface is straightforward enough that I have my mom uploading pictures. PBase allows you to upload pictures in a small number of formats individually or Zipped. Then the power of PBase goes to work, files are automatically unzipped and a thumbnail is created as well as different viewing sizes (Small - Medium - Large - Original). The original option allows you to access your original file!! Something that a lot of photo websites do not. The custom style sheets make designing your website very easy. Also, reorganizing photos and galleries is straightforward and extremely simple. (My PBase site is http://www.pbase.com/efatapo )

Strengths
pbase.com is a great and fast site. It's a great place to share your photos and memories as well as get some other viewers who are around to appreciate photography. Also, if you spend the time giving your photos descriptions they are searchable by all PBase members.

Weaknesses
The owner (http://www.pbase.com/slug) finally had to start charging. But it's a fair price, a year of 100mb storage and hosting and bandwidth for a mere $23. 300mb for $60

Similar Products Used
I've used Ofoto and a number of other sites that focus on purchasing prints. PBase is only focus is on allowing you to share your photos online in a quick and convinient way.

Customer Service
I've never had to deal with customer service. PBase was down for a day a year ago or so? That's the only problem I've ever had.
