Thanks for the vote of confidence/support. I'm going to hold off for a
little bit just because I'd like to see what people's reactions are and
whether or not there's already a good site performing this.

If there does seem to be demmand for it, I will put something up. I'm
already paying for hosting anyways. Other than an amazon banner (which
I'm probably going to toss), I don't run any ads on my site. The only
comercial aspect of my site will be selling prints of my photos in the
near future (almost have all of the details worked out), so I'm not
using this as just a means to promote a comercial site (not saying that
you implied this Chris, just pointing it out in case anyone has these
types of concerns). It would be handy though for me as then I'd have
some more web service stuff that I could demonstrate to people for
potential future web design contracts. Also, if I do choose to go the
photo route as a source of income (a definite possibility) this does
have the side benefit of drawing people to my site and possibly to other
parts of it (ie, my photos).

I think what I'll do is post a message to the group in a bit with what
my ideas for the site would be and see what people think. The basic
ideas that I have wouldn't be too hard to implement (I think/hope).
