A lot of entertainment and a lot of information! Lots of different ways to approach a problem also. :m03104:

The link worked fine yesterday. I used the second reference of the link, maybe there's a hiccup with the first. Hector

I'm in. Only been here for a month but it's paid off nicely. Thanks for the effort, I know it's a lot of work.

Re: Donations to help support OldIHC

For the "Forums" only, my cost is $137.00 per year.
The additional stuff, gallery, etc. runs around $250.00 per year.
There just isn't enough $ in Social Security to cover it all. So I take from Peter to pay Paul. Peter being the income from my commercial hosting..

Re: Donations to help support OldIHC

I will add to what Jim Says: Those figures do not take into account the countless hours put in "behind" the curtain. It also does not take into account "hardware" issues. I will grant that hardware issue would probably come up anyway even if site was not being run on it, but, without constant backups and something else to put it all on to keep running. We seem to have a stable platform for the Forum now, and I do my best to make sure the spammers do not get on.
What would also help is others who can do "computer" stuff, IE coding and such like that.
Me, I am just someone who knows very little, I can do the job I do and not much more. Jim's figure on the Forum DOES NOT include if we were to go to the Full on Paid Version of our software. His figures are just the Hosting.

We both understand that Life, and Family come First! I know that Jim is grateful for any donations that come in. They get used for the Site.
Just me and my thoughts, not authorized by Jim. :t0130: :whistling2:

It's hard to put an accurate $ to this all. Roughly... $400 is real close to what I spend per year to keep the things going.
There is more to OldIHC than just our forums. For example: https://oldihc.wordpress.com/
