UPDATE NEWS on BrickShelf.com
According to the mainpage of BRICKSHELF.com as if 9:25pm CST July 19, 2007
“Notice: Brickshelf will not be shutting down!
We will be offering “featured” accounts for $5/month shortly.
We have received hundreds of supportive emails in the past few days including
many who said they would like to contribute financially but did not know how.
This has had us rethink the practicality of charging for enhanced features.We
plan to do this without reducing current functionality for free users. Thank
you for your enormous show of support. IMPORTANT: do NOT try to download the
entire site, it causes major problems, slows things down for normal users and
you will be permanently blocked. We will make older folders public again
after we see the crawlers go away.”

I would have no problem spending $5 a month on an image hosting service for
LEGO. But I would not do it for one run by Kevin Loch. He has burned that
bridge too many damn times. If anyone else were to take over BS from Kevin, I
would gladly pay that person for the “pro account.” But Kevin’s utter lack of
communication and willingness to just pull the plug has made me lose all faith
in BS under its current ownership.
