Money-making? I'm not averse to money. Feel free to PM me anytime because I'm likely to forget to ask. A brief glimpse into more of the site's future: Right now, it's not possible to subscribe. That'll end up being fixed in a few weeks (I hope), and sometime in the not-too-distant future, we'll have a subscription model similar to iHub's. Free limited posting and premium features available on a (non-lifetime) subscription basis. Won't go into the details quite yet because not only will it take modifying the existing platform somewhat to make it happen, I don't have all the details worked out. For example, I'm not keen to throw free members into the boards that people have paid to participate in, free from the conduct that sometimes comes with free members. I'll figure it out. Also, I should point out before it gets asked: Grandfathered and Lifetime accounts will continue to be honored. More about subscriptions and access as I get it all worked out. The business model will be very iHub-ish, which is very brick-and-mortarish, and works.
