Smile Site Supporter Issues

I am currently working on getting the site supporter management program online. You may not see your icon until I am finished.

Thumbs up Site Supporter

I have made a few changes with the donation procedure. Previously, I had set it up to direct you to pay-pal and you could choose the amount. I had to manually keep track of all donations, set up the user rank for each donation and some folks were donating more than others (not that I'm complaining).

I have changed it to a subscription based donation. If you would like to be a Delmarvafishing.com subscriber, basically, you are subscribing for one year. The cost is $20. For that $20 you get a little icon that states you are a supporter of Delmarva Fishing next to your user name. That's it.

Registered members who do not subscribe get the same benefits as a subscriber (PM, avatar, signature and all that stuff). I'm not doing this to try to lure folks into subscribing, I'm just giving them a way to show appreciation to the site... In other words, no gimmicks. :rolleyes:

For those of you who have already donated more than $20, your subscription has been pro-rated for the length of time. Some of your subscriptions don't expire until January, 2011!

So, with all that said, I just want to thank all of you for not only your support, but just helping out and being here for us.

Sincerely,

Sam Kilgore
Site Designer

Thumbs up good plan

Seems like a logical progression as the site grows...and the pro-rating idea seems like a fair way of handling the transition.

That is exactly what I thought. As the site grows and membership and sponsorship grows, I can't handle all the footwork that this new forum option handles.

Also, for now I am trying to keep the advertising, in your face pop-up crap off the board.

Thanks for your feedback, Steve.

ok I am not worried about subscribing so much But can I still just make a regular contribution? I know this isn't cheap and I want to help as much as I can.

yak renting/loaning (to a moderator or admin) is another way of contribution

I just checked. If you donate twice, it just extends your subscriptions another year.
