You and Mike have done a good job marketing your site. You spend a ton of time at the forums....letting people know who you are, talking to people and letting them know about your products....not just the free stuff either. I'm not diminishing the efforts of the folks who contacted you, but you have to make yourself known to the community. I'm pretty familiar with your stuff and I've been sitting here trying to think of who is creating stuff like your free stuff, but for sale??? I'm not sure if this is all you guys do for a living, but if so, you are likely filling the need for that type of product. It's been said before: they should sit down and figure out what gap hasn't been filled and then work hard to be the one to fill it first. You know, in a way....contacting you like that and trying to put a "guilt trip" on you (because you and Mike are such nice people) was IMHO, a bit of a cheap shot. That may sound harsh, but I suppose my cynical side views what they did a bit like whining. We all control our own destiny....they should take control of theirs. I think Traveler probably summed up this general thinking better than I did, but I have a habit of being a bit to direct sometimes :) Keep doing what you're doing....it's what's makes you and Mike well loved and successful....what more could you ask for!! :)
