Tom (and everyone else who works on the site) Thank you sooo much. These boards have been a life saver for me and many, many others. The support, advice, encouragement, answers, etc etc that I get here have truly been the reason I have lost 22lbs (so far). I’ve dropped some money in the PayPal bucket and hope to contribute more in the future. I really want this site to continue on and help many more people find health and their lives again.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!!!

I have dropped my $20 into the pot too! This site is my daily inspiration, I would have surely failed without it. Every day is a struggle, another obsticle to overcome. I get there with the help of the good people on this board. I will donate more when I can.

I went ahead and sent $30... coz I KNOW it's going to happen....

and I can't wait to send 30 more.. :guns

Re: Donations

Tom,

I specialize in Internet Marketing and would be happy to give you some free advice on adding paid sponsors/aff links to the board in a non-overwhelming manner. I'm sure no one would want to see the board become one big ad....however, I think a few good banner spots/links in strategic places would certainly help to pay the bills. (have you considered adding Google Adsense to the board?)

If you are interested, either PM me or email me at tara520 at shaw dot ca

Re: Donations

Yes I use Google Adwords for my various companies. It rocks! Great idea

Re: Donations

I have always given to this board mostly because I feel that it is worth every penny that I put in and I don't want to try to come on one day and see a 'going out of business' sign. Also for those of you with APOs and FPOs and international, you can order low-carb stuff and its all delicious and fresh. Just email him if you have any questions. I know he ships to Japan cause one of our old MODs buys from him and I have an APO address.
Even if its just a buck or two, every little bit helps.

Re: Donations

On the portal page someone has posted the benefits of donating $15 dollars. I think that is appropriate for the use of the new board. I know it must have cost a lot to bring it up as well as a lot of hard work from a lot of people. It is the least we can do. How about it folks?

Re: Donations

Tom,

have you considered adding a small amount of banners to your site? , or perhaps google adsense?

im sure people will be willing to donate but you do have a site with alot of traffic .. you could use it to earn some money for yourself ,just an idea

on the topic of donations , well im planning to become a supporting member once i get back home .. unfortunately im strapped for cash at the moment , so my donation will only be something like 15-20 bucks

i encourage anyone getting anything from this board to make a donation

Re: Donations

I donated what I could afford I hope to get the cool supporting member thingie soon and all the added benefits. I love this board it's only natural I would support it.
