Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'd like to say that I was a pretty active member. i just also happened to work behind the scenes. Moderating did happen to be needing for posts and topics, you know.
To the idea of merchandising, it sounds like a good idea, but we also have to consider that we'd be making money of an already-existing licensed property. I really dont think we'd want Disney, of all people, to get on top of us for selling bootlegged material of characters they currently hold the rights over in the US.
Maybe we could take a route suggested to me by Chibi when he first put up my ad for commissions and have artists start doing their own commissions with a small side amount paid towards the site for advertising them? I've actually gotten a pretty healthy load of customers, thanks to the ad for my services being put up in the galleries, so why not, maybe it could to have a few more artists be put up? Basically, they could be renting out advertising space, and maybe, to be fair and make sure they're not getting jacked, the site could have all requests be relayed through them and then to the artist, so they know of the business transaction, and thus make sure they get their commission from the sale.
Just a small idea, is all.
