Tom,
I know a couple of other forum sites have "supporters clubs" where if you make a donation you get some benefits or a little logo under your name/avatar. (A bit like buying a pin badge!)
A couple of sites that I use are www.trialscentral.com and www.barryboys.co.uk.
Just a thought!

The PayPal button is really there in case Donald Trump drops by and decides to give me $10 million.
Seriously, I had thought about it and I can't decide whether it is a good idea or not. I don't want to make a HUGE deal about donating to the site because that isn't really what it is about. I don't want people to feel that they have to donate to be a full part of the site but at the same time I do want to thank those people who have been kind enough to help out.
What does everyone else think?

I donate because I want to. I've contacted you in the past because I receive a note from PayPal and I wanted to be totally sure money went directly to you. Perhaps just a quick email to those who do donate to say "hey I got it". As if you don't have enough to do
I am so grateful that you do this board that I don't need anything more. Just keep doing what you do.
