Can this be set up as a two tier group? You'd have your "free" section that has valuable information but limited. Just enough to keep you wanting more. The paid section gives members full access to files, photos, etc.

is membership in this group worth 5 bucks a year to you?? i would
give that.
Ned on the smithy group had the same problem and he took
donations into his paypal account marked as gifts.
i don't participate in this group much, im more of a lurker..? i read
and use what i find if i can.? but its worth it to me.
five bucks a year isnt much to access the expertise and
experience of others.
