Heh... My two cents: I understand the original complaint. If there is a free stuff item, it should be easy to find instead of making people surf and click time after time only to find out they can't even use the freebie because of the missing plug-in. There are people who'll say: "You should be grateful, it's FREE!". True. I am grateful. But having to search and search for the freebie you can't even use in the end is just not much fun. I understand people like FaerieGurl. Many hosts just won't allow hotlinks, and that's why the freebies have to be put on a website. So... the solution is quite simple. If you put the freebie on your site, make sure it's easy to find. For example: if your page uses frames, link the FreeStuff thumbnail to the main page and make sure there's a link that says "free downloads" or something there. That way people will find with just a couple of clicks what they're looking for... and everyone will be happy. Now, let's not fight.
