X-H2o funding/donations

[SuperJETT]

We have decided to add a donations system to help support x-h2o.com due to quite a few members asking for a way to help pay for hosting fees.

All money collected will go toward hosting fees first then to supporting events and members via t-shirts, stickers, food, and other means. No money will go into anyone's backpocket.

Our Paypal account is a business account which means fees do come out of payments, but we can accept credit card payments that way.

The link is the last one on the second navbar above ^^^ or www.x-h2o.com/billspaypal.php

Currently we have expenses of $109/month for hosting plus $20/year for domain names and our advertising revenue covers just under 1/2 of that. In 3 months we'll be out of money.

If you followed the other threads, you'll know that our traffic has grown substantially and a regular shared hosting plan for $10-20/month just doesn't give us what we need so we had to go to a higher capacity plan but not a dedicated server.

I just padded the account a little. I figure its the least I can do considering the amount of money the guys around here (and the old site) have saved me between parts and advice on work I would have normally gone to a dealer (*gasp*) for.

Out of curiousity - why is this thread hidden in this section? I know I don't frequent this section much - any plans to give it a little more visibility? Maybe you prefer to keep it low-key, I don't know. Just my $02.

I sent a little something.. IMO I would just hold on to the extra and save it for the future. Sure stickers and shirts are cool but we can buy thm.
