Ok, I'm really sick of the spinning crest thing I have, but I can't figure out how to inter a custom one, there no place to put in an address for a pic or anything? is this like the P.M. thing that you can only use after you have been here for a while? if so that sucks...

You have to be a supporting member to upload your own avatar.

shit.. well I was thinking of doing that anyway, I guess this is one more reason. thanks for the quick responce.

And you won't be seeing any advertisment ads in between post as well - that was a pisser for me in the beginning - didn't like that at all..... and some other goodies.... :)

This site def. deserves our support!!!
Good job Sal!!!
:thumbsup:

Custom avatar, more PMs, more photo upload, advanced search features, etc, etc Besides the fact you get more perks, you also assist in keeping the site running. A lot of folks don't realize the amount of time and effort that takes place in the "background" keeping forums like this going. :)

At the risk of sounding like a cheap ba****d, I have questions about supporting menberships. I'd like to donate but I have no need for any of the benefits listed below, and $50/yr seems like a lot for basic forum access. Other car forums including FTE sites are asking half that or less.

As a marketing suggestion, is it possible to have another membership tier? One that doesn't require additional storage or bandwidth? I think you might attract more donations from visitors that just want to share and learn from others.

That's probably only something Sal could give you an answer on.... :hmm:

For me, I saved more then that because of this site so it's no question of being a supporter!!!

I agree with the saved $$$ and the wealth of information I have obtained about my car. Sure its free but I felt that I would like to support it to show my appreciation for the site.

All your money are belong to Sal. ;)
