Sorry, I don't see this as a valid fundraiser for the victims. I see this as a way for the site managers to make a buck.
Could be. I still enjoyed the photos. With all the controversy around the fund raising, I would hard pressed to give to anyone "claiming" to be in support of the victims, without knowing my funds were going (@90%+) directly to the victims and then know how.

I agree with you.

I kind of thought that $25 per photo seemed a bit high as well... and the photo's are donated? sheesh! Something does seem a bit a-stray with this site, you are right.

I think we're more than willing to donate to a good cause, especially in support of our fellow Americans who've suffered great losses. I really do rebel against the idea of opportunists using this for personal gain. More than one billion dollars will be raised for the families of the 2500 to 4000 victims. I may be wrong, but IMO that's enough to cover what would be reasonable interum funding for them, if it's administered properly.
