OK all. I would like to start a donation thread to help support our site.
With over three hundred members we should be able to help Dan and Family cover the cost of the new and ongoing sites from now on.
I am starting the donation at $20 myself. I am not saying that everyone should put out to much. I would tend to think that If you can afford $1,$2 that will help out. Just think of it as a long day of fishing and loosing one plug that runs what anywere from $5-$8 each..
Anyone else?
I know that from the post that I have seen of Dan's he does not seem like the type of person that would ask for donations unless it was absolutly necessary.
So I am going to do it anyway. Hopefully nobody gets upset but heck when have I ever shut my trap when trying to help out a good cause.

Middleman,
I'm a sucker for the OPB Pledges but I always go for the ones that have goodies attached.
My game plan is the $150 donation that has a fishing trip attached <grin>.

Middleman,
Ahem...I'm sure you're good but I'm going with some guy running something called Quality Fishing Adventures...it's a gamble but he says the money will make its way back to the website.

You guys are to cool, I didnt make the new board post to ask for donations. But I wont turn them down either. ;D Thats just more options on the new board we can pay for. I put a paypal link at the top of the site for people that want to pitch in. If you dont want to, thats ok to. Your all good people.

Dan,
Be sure to point people to the PayPal at the top vs. the "Make a Donation" at the bottom which I think is to the bb software guys.

Yep, the one at the top. I first put it on the bottom, but figured that some may get lost. That's why it is now the ugly box in the header. Ok, off to work on the new board, oh wait, its 1 a.m. Time for bed as i have to get up in the a.m ;D

I just made my donation toward the new board expenses. ... It's the first time I've used PayPal for anything. Pretty easy.
Edit: btw Dan, I used my comcast email addy, not the yahoo one. And I used my legal first name of Edweenan, because my VISA card has Edweenan Larusso Hanson on it. ;D Nah, but it does have Stephen, rather than Steve.

Ya'll think this is a great site...wait till you see the NEW and improved site!!! I'm one of the lucky few to get a sneak peak before the maiden voyage and I have to tell you folks it blows this style board out of the water! I love this board (as if you couldn't tell ) but this new board has ALOT to offer us lemme tell ya. On that note... Kudos to Firedog, Lutz, and RT. Yours is money well spent!
