When I had my first character ready for release, I needed a place to host it and shareCg was the best place to do that, even without the payments. The real payment I get is from getting as many people as I can to see my work. and when I hear someone compliment my stuff, THAT is worth more than any money I could make here.
But I was able to get a new dvd burner for my pc and some content from the Daz store, and for that I say thank you Share Staff.
of course I'll miss the little I made, but I will continue to use this site simply because there isn't a better place to upload my freebies. If I need money I could always try to sell the stuff at rendo or daz.
