I'll get a proper banner set up in the new year.
Wonderfull...just donated again.
Rev - your regular visits to the sperm bank are really TMI.

Quote:Maybe it would be a good idea if staff came up with some kind of advertisement plan..you know...something subtle, so it doesnt seem like begging.
Like maybe putting a revolving banner ad in the top with humorous reminders to donate.. "even if its just a dollar you fuckin bum!" or something like that.
Yeah.... Although I loathe banner ads (Adblock FTW), I can see this being a useful approach (and hopefully, only in use during the donation drive!). I personally wouldn't want it to appear to be nagging, begging, using guilt or anything like that. I suspect that there are a sizable percentage of members who aren't aware that AF runs on donations and needs a server upgrade. As it's not really mentioned outside of a few threads, it's not exactly visible.
