Donations

Post by NIKKIE-NIKKIE »

Hi Guys.

Firstly thank you for you kind support over the last 3 going on 4 months. Time has certainly flown by.

I am sure you can all appreciate that there are some costs associated with running the site.

We as the Admin were happy to cover these costs, but some generous forum member's have asked if they can donate.

Therefore we have now set up a donate button at the bottom of the main index page.

You may think that it is not very prominent, there is a reason for that...basically we only want you to donate if you wish, no one is under any pressure, after all we are a non profit making forum and thus only need to cover our costs.

The yearly running costs are:

Registration of the domain name: £3.39
Hosting of the site: £55.35
Miscellaneous Costs £ 5.00

The Donate Button will only remain up till we cover these costs or a max 1 month, as again we wish to reiterate, this is purely for those that wish to donate.

We will duly update you with the amount raised.

Again our heart felt thanks go to all the forum member's for your continued support.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

You will note the donation button had been removed!.

There is a reason for this, there were so many generous donations, that we had hit our yearly target in a matter of days .

Now, we did say once we had met this years cost :D , we would remove the button, but you were so quick we didn't have to time to remove before we exceeded that amount :oops: .

So after verification with Paypal we can proudly say at the point of removing the button we had raised £115.00

So we have covered the costs for this year:-

Registration of the domain name: £3.39
Hosting of the site: £55.35
Miscellaneous Costs £ 5.00
PayPal Costs £ 6.00

Total £69.74

and have (with your agreement):-

£45.26 towards next years costs.........

Thank you to all those who donated. I am sure all forum members appreciate your kindness and generosity in keeping the forum going well into 2011.

** Edited by Nikkie-Nikkie as forgot to deduct Paypal cost (sorry !) is correct now.
