all gave Kevin a break.  The accusations and complaints aren't constructive,
and I would imagine they hit quite close to home for him.  He's provided the
community an EXCELLENT FREE SERVICE for many years, and is continuing to
provide it.

Thanks, Kevin, for Brickshelf.  Keep it up!!

I totally agree with Tim on this one. Kevin has done a tremendous job with
Brickshelf, even gone as far as to create some business around it to keep it
up when money was becoming an issue. It is still a free service from Kevin
to us.
And how do we thank him? We trash him the moment he stops the service
(remember the instruction scans issue?) or when he limits the amount of
garbage displayed in the galery.
PLEASE remember that no one is forcing you to use brickshelf! If you're not
happy with it, give helpfull tips, ask for improvement (ASK, don't DEMAND!)
or go somewhere else. Heck, you can even build your own website.

But I for one will stick to Brickshelf, understanding that Kevin rules the
site and believing that Kevin has his reasons to do what he does. And if he
wants to share those reasons, great. But if not, well I think that Kevin has
proven in the past over and over again that he is more than capable of
maintaining Brickshelf in a good manner.
