I guess I don't understand what difference there is in trading my time for $$$$ or services. It never was an issue in the past and so this is why I posted it. I did the post hoping one person in particular would respond that I had lost his email.
I don't think there's a rule against asking for recommendations for services. (i.e. "Anybody know a good painter in the hobbyist community?") Don't offer to trade. (Save that for the negotiations after they contact you.) I'm sure Dingus will correct me if I'm wrong.
