I agree, Michael does us all a favor nearly every day. My suggestion is that we all ask our selves when we make a submission to Michael for inclusion in his site: Is our submission just to share with all or are we promoting material we may have for sale?
If we are using his service as an advertisement then send some $ his way. I have talked to Michael and he is not doing the POD for profit, but there are ongoing costs to maintaining a site with the large amount of images he hosts. I have a large image Gallery of micrographs. I am lucky that Meteorite Times is the host of it. If I had to maintain it and pay for the cost of keeping it free and available to every one, I would of closed it down long ago. Paul (Meteorite Times) puts in a huge amount of work into the updates and maintenance of my Gallery and I am sure Michael has just as much work maintaining his site. I am in no way speaking for any one!!! These are just my thoughts on the subject. Tom Phillips In a message dated 11/26/2008 10:46:47 A.M.

If they visit your site they'll become aware that you do this on your own and barely hint that a small donation will help. That and a continuous input by them of their favorites to feed the process all helps to produce our daily fix.
