    And also, how much does it cost to host this site each month?
    Hi mate
    Nope - any funds donated go straight to paying fees for server hosting, VBSEO and VBulletin licensing fees. I don't charge for my time

    The server costs $99USD per month.

    So, if you get more than $99 for the month, where does the rest go.
    Does it just sit in the account to then pay the next months etc etc. I don't want to see it get lost in the system

    I would gladly contribute one months payment each year.
    I can't believe that you have been doing it for so long.

    Hi Michelle
    Thanks!

    Yep funds stay in the Paypal account and are used to pay hosting fees. I'm going to publish credits and debits each month so everyone can see what's happening.

    For the peace of mind and joy that this site has given me, I couldn't possibly NOT donate something. So, I sent mine in, just now. It's 1:38AM California time, I'm still at work later than I have been since this all began ........ and sending that put a smile on my very sad face.
    Thank you for all that you created.
