I posted this in your other thread but there's no point in retyping the same answer so:

Hey caribeview, I think I can answer that for you-

Basically this site is still in its infancy, but the idea is to have a repositorty of treatments that Hollywood types can come by, sift through, and see what they like.

If your hoping to post your treatment and then get a message form Paypal saying "you've got cash" then no, that's not going to happen.

Marc has basically been trying to wrangle some people in the Hollywood scene, and people that have been there (like me) for various reasons, selling the treatment being the main one. But we can also offer you constructive criticism, advice on how/where/when to submit treatments.

So far all the H'wood people I know that I've directed here that have checked things out complain of the same thing- not enough treatments.

So we need to get more treatments up, which will get the execs coming back, and get all of you on the fast track to H'wood semi-stardom! (Let's face it- writers don't become bigs stars, usually).

Just think about every producer and director in town having this site bookmarked and coming here daily because it's easy, fast, and free for them to see what the hot new ideas are. And it's easy, fast, and free for the users to get them out there.

So, in short- upload your treatments. There's no downside and the upside is making millions and retiring to a tropical paradise. Wait, scratch that last one- (This was a joke because in the other thread he said he lives on a tropical paradise. It's funnier in the other thread-)
