YES!

I would like to start in the VERY near future... But... Let's say that
we will begin to "harvest" sites around the end of October. That gives
everyone who wants to about 1 month to perk up their stuff... Also, if
you want o include some hi-res stuff, you could always e-mail it to me
or mail it to me on disk. (Let's talk before any of you do this...)

Go for it. That is a great idea, and Jon Siragusa has already given us
permission to distribute DepthCharge on this CD and hopefully will allow
us to also distibute some of their JPS images.

If you like... However... If you "contribute" your site, how is it ANY
differnt that having it available on the web? If a stereo image is out
there, then what's the difference having it on this CD? 

Also, on the very first screen people will see when using this thing,
there will be a clear staement that the work contained on the disc is
still owned by and copyrighted by the person who created the image. That
should afford some measure of comfort to those of you who will
contribute.
