to ASP.net or not to

Hi,

I hope I am asking at the right place. I work as a web designer and use
Dreamweaver. Few days ago I was asked to write a web app similar to
yahoo!photos; where people can upload their pictures and create albums which
an be shared. I was thinking of doing it using PHP (because I've been using
it for a while) but couple of my co workers recommended using asp.net I am
curious what advantage will I have using asp.net for this kind of application
because the hosting with asp.net is more expensive.

thx

This is a Classic ASP newsgroup. .NET groups have dotnet in their name.
You might get a better response there.

we'll say 'not to'
use ASP (of course) - or JSP and servlets

Not to go against the group, but...

I think you will be able to accomplish that task with PHP, there are tons of
resources out there and since you are already accustomed to PHP, you should
be alright.
