Donations to storm2k

[cycloneye]

Storm2kDonations@Yahoo.com is our PayPal account. Some people prefer to send checks however. The address is:

Marshall Frank
1847 58th Street S
Gulfport, Fl 33707

Let's do it folks.No matter how small is the donation,every one of them are welcomed.

What does the donation go toward?

For security's sake, I think it's probably unwise for Marshall to have his physical address posted on this site. I would recommend having people PM a mod for the address instead. Just a thought...

Point taken on the security issue but I guess I've always trusted people. The donations go to pay for the cost of the site pure and simple. With our recent host change our monthly server cost went from 140.00/month to 180.00/month. We also used the donations for the Hamweather software that we used on the home page. When we changed hosts we cancelled our subscriptions while we work on our new layout. Up until that time we were spending well over $100.00/month just to bring all the different customized maps to the home page.

Here's and extract from our PayPal acount for the month of Jan 2007:

When I get paid again I can send a donation. This last paycheck only had 4 days work on it it due to spring break and a teacher work day in the week after spring break. On the 27th I can send an amount by the USmail in the form of a money order made out to Marshall with Storm2k support written on it also.
