HI Pete

You can count me in as a moderator if needed.

I agree with Andy P's comment that this is a brave move Pete, but one that in these "troubled" times could quite easily spell the difference between the death or survival of UKFR.

This will be an interesting time, and if it means that membership rises all the better.

I think its an excellent idea Pete, best of luck.

Any help needed, just ask

Thank you, Pete. Your efforts on here are greatly appreciated by us all.

Excellent idea Pete! I'm sure the loss in subs will be more than offset by the extra page views of the adverts... Be sure to set up the necessary analytics to provide figures to tempt advertisers in though.

Good luck!
Robin.

Just an idea, maybe you could charge for Premium Content - say for high quality downloads of good firework displays.
Tony over on the freaks site is playing around with it, some sort of software tied into vimeo, users can see the embedded video clip, but he may charge �1 to download a full HD version, he's doing it for the Nit de Foc from Valencia this year.

Anyway, I think opening up the website will bring you a lot of interesting possibilities.
