Up until now, I have shouldered the costs associated with maintaining CF. Other people have made donations privately to help cover the costs. With the upgrade to the new forum software, we decided to add a donation block to the forum index.

You are not required to donate, and there is no minimum amount if you do wish to donate. All donations will go towards covering the continuing costs of running CF, such as hosting fees and software licensing fees. All donations will be kept confidential. There are no "special perks" for donors. Everyone is equal here, whether you choose to donate or not.

All donations are greatly appreciated.

Absolutum obsoletum. (If it works, it's out of date.)

Awesome Jeff! I've been meaning to donate but I just never seem to have the time to get to the bank to buy a USD money order :blush:

, and I don't use cheques.
This will make it much easier. (y)

Still looking for the 'donation' button on the index. Heck. I'm still looking for the index. If I don't find it someone will show me, right?

Long time lurker

got hooked in the old msn group site. Really appreciate this site and the folks that put so much effort into keeping it helpful and informative. Not to mention entertaining on the off topic forum
