Thank you randy for an eloquent, yet to-the-point look at what a TV show and a forum cost.

YOu illustrate well the disparity between passion and profit. When one goes up, the other goes down...

Thank you Mr. Newberg for the explanation. Once again my ignorance of the system has failed me. Just an idea>

Ugh, now I feel super guilty for getting bored and posting a bunch of pictures!

Worry not. That is why we have a size limit on pics. Your pics are worth the nickel it costs to store them all for five years.

Fin another semi public land show recently posted something about a new law proposing filming permits being set at $200/year. Know anything about this?

Here is the bill

•Limit attachments. Require pics to be hosted on some other platform, such as Photobucket and let them incur the storage costs.

Since I do this already, I would more than gladly support your decision to do so! There are lots of free services out there for hosting a persons pics. So, it won't cost the posters anything and saves you a few bucks to continue to keep the lights on here. Win, win as I see it.

Yup. Been helping on that one for some time. There was a bill in 2012 that had the same language, introduced by a MT Senator. Election year politics killed it. Hope this one passes.

I've paid over $90,000 in public land filming pemits in the last six years. No problem with paying for the use of a public resource, but the cost does not seem commensurate with the impacts our little crew has on the resource.

How many members on this site Randy?

I know you would probably like to keep it free, but I for one, would be willing to pay.

And to the forum members in general, maybe we should all just adopt a small user fee and send it it to Randy? $5 per year? That is dirt cheap for the entertainment and then it would still be a "free" site. If it would help defray even a little cost, I think it would be worth it. Thoughts?

I'd gladly pay $5 or $10 a year for the wealth of information and entertainment found here.
