I'm thinking LeChacal has £100,000 just knocking about ?

If you ask him we all have that knocking about.

Yeah, it's not *that* much.

Pretty much vantage.
The software we have at the moment is free, it's buggy, limited & hard to update or change.
Sunny has to do this alone, so it means a lot more of his free time isn't eaten up than has to be simply by this software issue.
The servers need moving cos our current hosts are piss poor, so it would be better if we could move onto new software at the same time so sunny has more free time & we have much less problems & loads more hosting options. In a member of hundreds, literally, of forums & the vast majority have features & software that could make this site stellar, we can't have them until we upgrade the software though, & as owners we simply don't have the cash to fund that as well as pay hosting cos some of us (me included) have massive unavoidable financial constraints currently), so we're asking for a one off donation from whomever wishes to pay so you can buy the new software we want to run on the new hardware we need that we will be paying for.
That make sense? Typing quickly on a bus, sorry if it doesn't!

Well one of us giving up our free time is the last thing any of us posting on a football forum for 20 hours a day wants to do.

Sunny, if we had to vote on this, I'd say a clear majority would have you as most trustworthy person on the site. You be the treasurer.
Yep. Second that!
Besides yourself. I'm guessing Vlad, Portly or Jules would be great nominations.
If Sunny really doesn't want it. Ross could play treasurer....he has already done it once before so he knows what he is doing.

Nice that you've got a "cause" to get you out of having to contribute.
*Throws change at Themn*

Haha. I've just had to buy myself a new home PC as well so we're not backed up at the moment...crumbs!! My PC literally blew up last night - suprised it didn't cause a fire given the damage that was done....
Still, nice new shiny beast of a machine on its way soon so a nice shiny new devleopment platform for the new 6CM.

Yeah, if Sunny doesn't do it, I'm sure Ross could handle it. He managed to convert the £300-odd collected for ILD into a hundred euros with absolutely no fuss.

OK. If everyone is OK with it I'll set it up and it'll go to my Paypal but it will all be visible and I'll give updates of what we have minus Paypal fees...
Is that OK with everyone?
It will be a couple of weeks before I can start work on it all due to workload at the moment but it wil give us some time to gather the funds.

That's impressive. If I give you £64 can you give me £80 back? 😉

I think you should set it up ASAP.
Also get that widget thingy displayed here if poss?
Leave the closing date open for a good few weeks? We do get some people who visit less than regularly who may want to donate.

Alright, I've done my modest bit.
Okey dokey, whatever is easiest.
Ooh, this is exciting. New software has loads of cool bells & whistles.
