I think a suggestion was made earlier to find or create a new "non-capitalist" site. Yes starting all over again can be tough, but when things get so far out of whack that they can't be fixed (sort of like a bad marriage) sometimes it's necessary. Personally I feel that the vast majority of us who spend an ungodly amount of time at this hobby do so out of the sheer love and enjoyment of it, as opposed to making $$$. We do it because it's fun. When it's no longer fun, we stop. That's it. I'm all for the creation of a new community "by the people, for the people." But that's me. This is coming from a guy who's spent the entire year working on a 3D comic book for others to enjoy for free, who sometimes thinks all the time, effort and stress involved is absolutely crazy, but does it anyway because he loves it and feels not everything on the net should have a price tag. Do what you must, as must we all. Alan powerheroes.com
