Netspray.com came with a strong recommendation from Skip McGrath, but after signing up for an account and testing a few things I determine it isn't for me.

NetSpray is very new and needs to grow to reach it's potential.  That's OK.  I understand getting in early and hoping for a good ride.

However, it is clear the real advantage of NetSpray will be for people who want to advertise other peoples products.  In my case I am looking for a system that makes it easier to advertise my own, one of a kind, items on a variety of locations.  NetSpray really isn't designed to do this.

My second complaint is the NetSpray branding is more visible than I prefer.  In many cases I would be using it on my own sites and I am not willing to pay to give another business such prominent placement :)
