Just imagine how many other people are doing the same thing.

Free content from programs is supposed to offer the surfer a low quality teaser of what is inside the members area, a low quality teaser because if they want the good stuff, they are supposed to be paying for it.

Lee, you assume that we give entire photo sets to our affiliates to promote our site. You know what happens when you assume, don't you?

I actually agree with you that free content is supposed to be a teaser. That's why we give 12 photos to our affiliates in hosted galleries or separate for them to make their own designs. And personally, I'm all about creativity and if people want to get a membership and choose a few alternate photos that will fit their angle better, I couldn't see why anyone would think that would be an issue. However, we do not encourage people to post entire galleries of our content.

So let me pose a question to you guys. How would you best handle a situation like this? Some of you have talked about "clamping down" and refusing content, but really, there has to be a happy medium so that your affiliates have the freedom to promote in a way that works well for them without harming potential sales?

And Lee, you have a great site and have been friend of mine for years, but I must say I'm a little disappointed that you chose to put the blame on my company without ever taking into consideration the fact that maybe we didn't actually give permission for a gallery like that to be posted. It's a little like shooting first and asking questions later.
