Slug can decide on the time frame...whether 2 weeks or some other time frame. but, shutdowns like we're experiencing is not helping PBase out in the PR dept. of those of us who do pay. I had time available this past weekend to work on my albums but, now that time is lost. For some who have their PBase account on Google (like some Universities and web sites I've seen) long down time like this can actually cost a business or institution thousands of dollars.
IT IS ONLY FAIR THAT EACH AND EVERYONE OF US PAYS OUR FAIR SHARE!!! If one doesn't feel like paying, fine! They can move on and use Yahoo or MSN or someother site not nearly as professional as PBase is. This latest shutdown should be a wakeup call for all of us. Look at what has happened to Raging Bull. They've lost half of their posters since Rusty sold it to CMGI. And now it is a cess pool like Yahoo. Slug can give any new user a grace period BUT, at some point they MUST pay or leave. It really is very simple. If a user doesn't have much time to spend here like you say, then fine...once he decides he wants to use PBase, he can pay and he has a whole year to download photos on his timeframe. That has no bearing on paying within two weeks after trying PBase. And like I said, if they only have a few photos to post, then possibly Yahoo or MSN is the best place for them. PBase is suited for those of us who have a bunch of photos.
4) Encourage the posting of only original work and actively discourage (somehow) the posting of pictures that are not the property of the user.
