Site Support and Calendars


Folks,

 The funds from the last site support drive are almost depleted. This is mostly thanks to (what I consider) the high fees Photobucket charges (About $220/yr which came due in November) and the monthly hosting fee that's now $145 per month- this is after a decent discount from our host) . The online store is $172/year. Use of the store is quite low however I would like to continue to use it as makes the bookkeeping so much easier. There are other fees incurred including domain name renewal etc. I am no longer using Photobucket however there are thousands of photos on there from previous posts (feature cars etc) so it wouldn't be a good idea to cancel. 

Ad revenue isn't near what it was 8 or so years ago. Ad blockers are a big problem. 

Anyway, if you can chip in a few bucks it's much appreciated. There's a link at the bottom of the screen for using Paypal for site support. E-transfers are also an option.

The 2024 Calendar should be ready to go by the end of next week. I'm just waiting on a member to submit a higher resolution photo of their car. 

The calendars aren't a big seller. We only sold 22 last year and the site only makes about $7 each after costs. I'm not sure if I'll do one for 2025

A huge THANK YOU to those of you who contribute to the site both monetarily and in time helping out. I couldn't run it without ya's!

Thanks

How difficult is it to go to the bottom of the page and click the $5.00 button.

Does the site pay a fee for the 5.00 donation. How much of the 5.00 remain with the site.

Should guests pay the 5.00 fee?
