Anotherone bites the dust [content provider]

It's a pity - but I would say that his very restrictive access policy hurt his business tremendously. I wouldn't go through the process as required to even LOOK at some of the content for sale. I know that content providers don't want to be free sites with tons of users cruising around but if I can't even see generally what you are selling without handing over personal info (and requiring that info to match whois records? HELLO?)... me thnks his business practices limited his potential somewhat.

That's too bad! ... good company to deal with and I loved being able to grab just a couple of images from a set.

I think Gabe is talented and I would like to see him become very successful. Perhaps he is in another venture.

You're right RawAlex. I purchase a lot content and his policies were too restrictive to get me to even shop. Perhaps if he refrained from comments on another board, made his lisense less restrictive and invited customers this would have been far more profitable for him.

I wish you luck Gabe.
