I've lost years of pictures twice now by relying on image hosting sites that eventually shut down. First was Lightbox7, the last I THOUGHT was Photobucket but that appears to be online so I'm not sure which that was. Both times it was infuriating and I don't recall ever receiving any warning when Lightbox7 went dark. Lost all of my high school/middle school pictures (I'm 30 now, this was a long time ago).
I'd warn you to not rely on any startup and to make sure your data, if its critical, is dispersed between different services, such as Dropbox, Google Drive, Sky Drive. I've not used it yet, but you can sync files between cloud services via CloudHQ; https://www.cloudhq.net/dropbox https://www.cloudhq.net/dropbox
