While I've only made one small change on the site so far, I believe that 
registration is a reasonable precaution.  While it may be possible that some 
would decide not to post anything if they were forced to register, they're 
already logged by their IP's.

I still plan to upload some of my objects.  I just haven't gotten around to 
it yet.
