New Donations System

Well if you were thinking about it the same time I was thinking about it, that would mean I am as smart as you, OR you are as dumb as me!

I'm not sure either is much of a compliment.

HA HA HA HA!

But I'm good for $10 a month. Let's see; that means you get about 0.75 after the exchange.

How about gold connecting rods instead of bars..

[bszopi]

Ooo... now I just need to draw one up in Paint. LOL!

[asylummotorsports]

How about gold non-existent rocker arms?

LOL!


Yes I'm still bitter about April 1st!

I'll work on one in photoshop. Shouldn't be too hard...

*edit, hows this?

[bszopi]

That looks cool, probably need to make it smaller, though. Might do a couple different things as well, since we have 10 levels of "awards". Might do like a bronze, silver and gold one, then have them build up as follows...

$0.01-9.99 : 1 bronze
$10-24.99 : 1 silver
$25-49.99 : 1 gold
$50-74.99 : 1 gold and 1 bronze
$75-99.99 : 1 gold and 1 silver
etc...

I might change the awards levels as well, since I doubt anyone will ever reach the top, which is currently at more than $1000.

eew. Id rather them all have the same pic and use the old one with the medal and Site Supporter or whatever it was. Clean and simple would be my suggestion.

[bszopi]

So no matter if they donated $1 or $100, they would get the same recognition?

[SappySE107]

That wouldn't bother me any.

[Superdave]

How about 1 more rod per tier (each is silver), then when they get to 6 they turn gold.

if you let me know what size you want it's very easy to change that..

[asylummotorsports]

If this becomes a "bragging rights" thing it's now suddenly STUPID!

Someone supporting the site is a Supporter!

That should be about sufficient.

If we get enough donations, we can pay people to write articles for the site. Earn back your money donated:P Nothing else seems to motivate people.

Do you really want to unleash me to write a RANT on here?

Or how about a monthly commentary on the obdurate participation and views of some members?

Hell I could make Dennis Miller BLUSH! And make Limbaugh seem relevant.

And all of it in some semblance of addressing 60 degree engines, and the people who own them.

So just what is the $$ threshold for that sort of un-banishable freedom?

Come on!

A donation is a donation. There should not be a degree of support.

Just my .02

[SappySE107]

I dunno what to tell you. Why do you care if I donate more than you?

[asylummotorsports]

I DON'T care and neither should anyone else. The fact that someone is a contibutor to the site should be enough of a tonic and a pat on the back.

Why should anyone else know how much you or I or anyone else can afford?

The fact that someone is able and willing to support the site should be enough in and of itself.

The United Way doesn't gauge my donation every year.

Just says Thank You!
