If a person is given membership, and they use it to add in some screen shots on the hub, everything is cool, right? Wrong- When they lose membership, they lose complete ability over the screen shots and that can turn out quite bad. I have a problem on my own game from when I had posted up screen shots in the year I was given Membership. After I lost it, I kept working on my game...But now the screen shots are completely outdated and I would love the ability to just REMOVE them...I am sure I'm not the only person with this problem, so sorry if this is a duplicate...

They should probably just be hidden when membership expires.

I disagree. If it's a game that's still downloadable, and people want to see what it looks like long after the developer leaves, the screenshots should stay. Removable should be an option, like above.

And if the developer wants to continue to advertise their game, with screen shots, with the rank boost provided by them, they should renew their membership.

Right, they should, but I'm saying in the event that they leave, people should still be able to get a visual representation of what the project is, even if they're no longer a member.

Wouldn't that remain true for any game? Even those that weren't members before but could provide screen shots. Screen shots for your game is a way to entice you into buying a membership.

Yes, and it obviously enticed you enough to get a membership the first time, to put screenshots up. And I think they should stay up, because lack of screenshots may or may not deter potential game-players. If the owner comes into a situation where s/he can't renew a membership, but loses all screenshots, what then?
That aside, s/he already paid for the membership, which included those screenshots. Those should stay, and new ones would require a new membership.

Ah I see then, fair argument.

Then they lose the bonus(es) they were paying to receive? The screen shots shouldn't be deleted. They should just be hidden on the hub entry, and the rank bonus they provide should be removed.
