Craig Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 As you may have seen, just below the banners above is a link to make a donation to Windows Forum.The running cost of this site totals around £200 every six months and this is for the hosting of the site.All previous moneys received up to this point have been put towards the hosting fees, and this has helped greatly to keeping the site running.The donations that I hope to raise this time around will be put towards finally registering the forum with invision, which will entitle Windows Forum to a lifetime membership of the forum software and also allow discounts on further software from invision as and when we may require it.I also hope to purchase the invision chat software which will be fully integrated into the forum.The chat software is paid for annually and costs approximately £80 PA (a discount will be applied if the forum is registered first).I hope to raise £160 to proceed with the above.I will be putting money into the kitty myself, so don’t think I will be getting away scott free!If you do wish to donate, I have several methods of payment, one of which is PayPal. I have included paypal as it is easy to use, but they do take 2.5%, so if possible please use another method. However if you do use paypal, I will put the extra 2.5% in myself.Every 24 hours i will update the donations page to reflect how much has been raised.Thanks for your help,Craig.

moon Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Is it too much to ask for a cast-iron guarantee that this site will never run ads ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damo Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Is it too much to ask for a cast-iron guarantee that this site will never run ads ?Its not had ads before, if Craig is able to fully register the software then there would not be a need for ads of any kind! :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
