And please flame if you need to, but don't some of the larger programs, "leak" pics to the surfers anyway along with multiple people distributing user area pics in the form of p2p file sharing. Pages like
www.ultrapasswords.com have been in existance since I was to young to get access to porn and I never read much into their "hacked" passwords those had to be links given out. I actually started in porn trading pics through ICQ back in high school.
Wouldn't water marking your pics and videos be the same as giving "press packets" or sponsored pics to TGP owners? The same as coporations and companies sending out free samples to consumers. GMC's test drive it before you buy it?
How exactly with the above in mind do we all lose with him having a surfer forum. Do you not believe in sponsored links or banner adds? Do you not believe in word of mouth or viral advertising? I post this in all senserity since I do not deal with content at all yet and would like to learn from people with more experience.
