How can I donate?
How can I donate?
Theory is - when you know everything but nothing works.
Practice is - when all works, but you don't know why.
We combine theory and practice - nothing works and nobody knows why
Coders rule nr 1: Face ur bugz.. dont cage them with code, kill'em with ur cursor.
Ok, I restate the question:
How can I donate other way than PayPal?

Not sure if that is possible. I just used Paypal. You should PM WILL and ask for alternatives.

Well that's the main thing, all other options seem to have led to more massive mountains of work just to get what is already available for a small cost considering what we could be paying for a fully custom site. And should we need to update we would have to practically set up everything again. An all-in-one software allows the staff to focus more on you guys and other organizing of events rather that just trying to keep the site pages working for you to use the site.
All that said, I've just received another donation closing the gap further for the cost amount and I'm getting ready to make the purchase soon. Anyone else what to chip in please feel free, anything will help.
Also if you would like to become a part of the staff once the new site is up to help reignite some excitement around here, please feel free to PM me and we'll see what job position we can give you.
Seriously, SMF2 RC3 has most of the 'important' mods up to date. Even in the days of SMF2 Beta, when none of the mods were ready, I converted them by myself. It only took a few hours for the largest ones. It's certainly no harder than programming a game
I could do the move to SMF for you if you'd like and if you're too busy. I wouldn't mind.
But what's particularly different on your website? I don't see anything special, if you don't mind me saying...Originally Posted by WILL
Now look at http://noisen.com -- now that's a heavily customized website. This one (pgd) could actually benefit a lot from upgrading to SMF2.
That you think. vBulletin4's release was very controversial. It led to the departure of their main programmer. I'm not sure it's as stable as it pretends to be.And should we need to update we would have to practically set up everything again. An all-in-one software allows the staff to focus more on you guys
Seriously, if you have to BUY a software package, go for Invision instead. It's much better in every respect. It's only slightly better than the current SMF2, and even Invision isn't going to be able to compare when the new SMF project that is being built is released. Just don't do anything you could regret later, that's all. Converting from one forum to another, and then back again is not particularly easy either.All that said, I've just received another donation closing the gap further for the cost amount and I'm getting ready to make the purchase soon.

I'm not really kind of an "animator", more of a technician (programming stuff, remember?). Maintaining a forum isn't really a "job" to me...Also if you would like to become a part of the staff once the new site is up to help reignite some excitement around here, please feel free to PM me and we'll see what job position we can give you.
