Re: Photo Albums…. omfg!!
Code should be free under the GPL, but support has value. Unfortunately it’s difficult to charge people for your time through a website, which is why developers tend to charge for code or put up a paywall.
Someone make a BuddyPress site where your paypal is part of registration, and every time someone in the developer group marks a forum topic as resolved, it invoices paypal for $1 from the topic starter.
That, would be the best way to make money as a dev without freelancing or consulting, in my opinion.
