Donate/Buy button

It says donate, I couldn't get one that specifically say's 'sticker payment' as I'm expecting those back from the printers imminently and they go on sale at 2.50 ea including postage,

Costs typically here are GBP:
120 hosting
40 domains rental
140 Mark Hamill's time @$30 an hour
40 some advertising you may all have come across
30 sticker initial print run


If you wish to contribute a little towards the recurring costs then I'm grateful,
as membership increases we are optimistic in attracting advertising to bear these costs


thank you.

I did throw in a bit in the early days, but yes, more than happy to click every now and then. I guess we won't see much in the way of ad revenue for a while, but maybe time to get a couple of big players like towsure and justkampers onboard to get cheap initial ad deals which can creep up as throughout rises.

Agree the forum should be self funding and at around £40 a month that should be achievable.

I've just "donated" and made it a monthly repeat. Happy to do this as I would just forget otherwise and if it builds a surpluss it can always fund more promotional activity.
