lol, money laundering http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_laundering

It's unclear, as the company that owns TSR is another company that Thomass and the rest of the TSR staff own. His job is exactly the same thing on both sites - html and graphics.   Considering the amount of time he spends there, he's not doing much else, and TSR is his main income. 

When it comes to earnings, conservative estimates are that minimum, TSR makes $500,000 a year gross - even if a minute percentage of members take out a subscription.  Take away say 200 payments of $300 for artists, and that still leaves an awful lot for administration and bandwidth.

Yes, WB, bring me good memories too.
BTW did you got your birthday gift? *looks innocent*

You can bet your bottom dollar on it

The stooges considered it great fun and thought Thomass was finally doing something to protect their all important pixels from those not "deemed worthy" of having them (ain't that right, princess padre?).

Recieved this email after I posted:

Hi my dear,

I would strongly recommend you not to do what you wrote otherwise we will send out your datas to paypal and all our greedy paysite-friends.

If you look around our site you will see that not every set costs 3,50. And don’t worry about the other subscribers – they got their money refunded today ;-)

Have a nice evening,

Sasi
