If you're hosting from the NAS itself, your internet upload speed is going to be the limiting factor. But you don't have to do this - you can use the NAS for storage and still use online services for image hosting and backup. I don't upload every picture I take to the web. I save them all on my computer (or NAS) and then upload specific, relevant pics as needed. Usually either through the forum or temporary hosting site like Imgur or tinypic. I use Dropbox and my online storage for more permanent sharing solutions, but I typically keep those private.

95% of the time we'll be uploading pictures to the NAS in the house so not a big deal BUT I know my wife will want access remotely to view the albums to show her friends and family so I'll have to host.
