Donate button on the front page

Just to let people know there is a new button on the front page labled 'Donate', Mr W put this up to shut me and Hellfire up about feeling the need to show our support to him for ALL his time and effort running and developing this site. It is NOT compulsary to donate so do not feel it is, it is there only for people who feel the same as us and that it is time for ChrisW to receive something in return for running the site

Thanks for pointing that out. I think that the effort should be rewarded.

Good karma and all that.

Thanks to everyone who has sent me money but please remember this is in no way meant to be mandatory. The site isn't going anywhere, and I have no issue with donating the resources it needs from my business. Luego have helped me out with my project and I'm more than happy with the situation. I see it as a tax free way of getting car parts out of my business!

BTW, buying a hosting account/server from me, or a brekkie at the WLM meet is just as good as donating!

good idea, i might donate £1 just to get the extra stars

what about making this thread a sticky that stays at the top of the section?

wow! stars and a namechange! - Who woulda thunk?!

ChrisW - I didn't give you the money because you need the money, I gave because you deserve a token of appreciation for a job well done.

Thanks to eveyone who has sent me donations so far. I think I've creditted everyone, but if you have sent something and havn't got your stars please let me know - especially if the email address you used is different to the one registered on here!

You never know, I might be able to get myself some harnesses after all

Donate what you want to - there is purposely no amount 'set' to be a contributor.

Bob - no problem about not having 'contributor'. Scotlad has already done that

Hope I've got got everyone's Contributor status set who has donated (and not asked for something different). If I havn't don't be shy about u2u'ing me!

Thanks again everyone!

Chris
