Just for reference, pair gives 40mb and an unlimited number of

Makes no difference to me since I would probably never have the time
to do more than help front the cost of the domain, etc and maybe
submit some models once I get time to use a more Mike-friendly
modeler.


I kinda liked the idea of selling $10 or $20 CDs with collections of
models on them.  Nothing wrong with that if most of the money went
into the web-hosting, etc.

It is a nice idea, we can still do it too, if we just make enough to cover
costs of manufacturing and shipping - no personal profit for the disks.
Unless it is considered acceptable for the person who burns the CDs to
recieve a couple bucks for their efforts..

I'd be happy to burn CD's for nothing (effort-wise) other than the
cost of the media and shipping.  I kinda think it would be neat if any
money from those could be funneled into paying for a better account or
something.  Maybe even prizes for model competitions, who knows...
