I sit on several forums that I find terrific value - one for Subaru has 
saved my arse more than once in addition to giving me vital info regarding 
turbo charger plumbing etc. Another is a woodworking forum that is totally 
brilliant. This forum has provided materials, sales, great hints, and 
allowed me to help others with my particular skills.

In addition, they have files areas, photo sections and a range of other 
things that mean value to their members.

All this is too hard because I have to log in? Good on ya
