Thanks Jd

I'm in. Gavin is the unsung hero of this forum. It certainly gives my a huge amount of enjoyment and laughs plus learning.
If each of the 2600+ member put in only $2 each that would equate to over $5000. Cheap entertainment and schooling.

Cheers

Thanks guys Ultimately Gavin is the one working to keep this site interesting
I have been on here and had lots of good reading over the years. We forget whos keeping this alive imagine no forum to read and whats $ to help grow it into something bigger and better its alright to complain about slow uploads etc but its a small budget when only the same few dip their hands in

Thanks everyone - it's very much appreciated! A fair few donations have rolled in, so thank you. As part of the site refresh I'll shop around and see which meatier hosting options are out there that I might be able to bump the site up to. Hopefully that'll bring a bit better speed to the site for those that have experienced any slowness.

Have a great weekend out there! :)

I found the donation page just by accident.
Yay I got a medal - that was a nice surprise.

I will continue to make donations in the future.

The site is great. Though some image hosting would be an improvement.

A Neil from these forums donated some money to me, but I can't match your name and surname to any obvious username on the forums. I'd like to add the "donation" medal to your profile, if you don't mind of course. So if you don't mind sending me a quick PM telling me your surname (so I know I've got the right Neil) I'll get on to it. Thanks for the donation - it's very much appreciated.

P.S. I haven't posted the surname here in case you're a private individual who doesn't want their full name revealed.
