"maybe other people would like a way to make a page of pictures of crap they want to sell to point their friends at" What would make them want to pay for it when they can already easily create a picture album in flickr (or any other free picture hosting website for that matter) and point their friends into it? I mean that would be completely free for them. I still don't see the point why anyone in their right mind would want to pay 1$ for uploading a picture & creating a web page which has those mentioned pictures - Where's the value for the user compared to other sites ??? It's not the year 1998 anymore, you know...
