Thanks for the advice. This is all in support of an advertising-based

there were two parts to managing and delivering ads. You must have a

image, and
you must provide a way to manage the sales and order process and
have the
orders get into the ad delivery system. I guess I was trying to

Yeah, the content group is a good idea and there is already some
precedent (and an example!) for that. Something like the factoid
thing in one of the screenlets on the home page of the ecommerce app
might be helpful.
