Don,

One of the best things about the Internet is getting as much information on any given subject thinkable.

I visit forums like this to gather as much of that infomation as I can, and when I can I offer information that may be useful to others I post it. If I offer information to this forum or any other forum (whether to my benefit or not) I do it knowing that somewhere in this vast world someone will have what they feel, or know, is a better or cheaper way and they will post it. If people like what I have to offer, they will check it out or possibly purchase the information if I am selling it. If not they will move on.

Granted you have some people that really respect you and your projects you have to offer as money making opportunities. But if someone comes along and has an alternative it is they way you handle it that that makes the difference. If people like your alternative they will stick to yours - if not then just keep trying.

If it were me and I had a lot of projects like you do and I wanted people to focus intently on those projects I would start my own forum. You would have a lot more control over the types of posts that appeared on it.

Good luck.
