Cliff, I'd put up with just about anything for this service! Thanks for all your time, effort and $$$!!! The Fiero community already owes you a debt we couldn't begin to repay. Is Infopop your ISP or the BBS? As a suggestion, have you discussed advertising or recognition for your ISP on the opening page for the forum? Something like a "Services provided by I-SomeStupidISPName.com". Maybe they would cut you a deal.

The banners wouldn't bother me. In fact you could even use banners that are not Fiero related directly but car related. Like places for tires or general auto parts. The annoymous donations may help too. You could set it up as an additional part. Maybe combine the donations with PFF merchandise type of thing. Say a donation of XXX amount or more and you can get a PFF T-shirt. ------------------

Cliff ~ I just joined your most excellent forum yesterday and here's my 2 cents: 1. Go ahead with the banners - it's easy enough to for us to get free banner & pop-up ad-blocker programs such as The Proxomitron ( http://www.proxomitron.cbj.net ) so you never have to see them or even know they're there, and... 2. On other forums that I am a member of they make it so you cannot post pics unless they're linked somewhere else - like your own site or in a yahoo briefcase or such. That could cut your bandwith use down considerably. [This message has been edited by Roger That (edited 04-11-2002).]

No worries, mate! I would prefer they be stationary banners at the top or bottom, and not the geocities type stuff, but I wouldn't mind at all if they're not Fiero-related, as long as they were clean. I think whoever suggested the PFF merchandise was a genius! Even if you still needed banners, I'd LOVE to be able to buy PFF stuff and have it help fund continuing the forum. Thanks again Cliff, for all you do.

Go for it Cliff. Anything goes as far as I'm concerned. I wouldn't limit the ads to just Fiero related products - how about automotive related products? I can already see the Pontiac Vibe ad ... it would be kindof cool to have GM paying the bills for this site.  I think alot of members would also be willing to make anonymous donations - especially if is setup as a not-for-profit organization so we could write-off the contributions on our taxes. I'd rather give money to you than Uncle Sam.
