Many have asked if we would add a support/donation button, but we never really needed one until now.

We are set to expand the site and introduce many, many new features. I thought I would be able to do it all out of my pocket, but things are looking like they will cost a bit more than I can afford. My plan right now is just to roll out new things a little at a time since I dont have the funding to do what I want to do.

This is where you come in. If you would like to help (and this is obviously COMPLETELY optional), I put a “Make a Donation” button on http://www.gearlive.com in the sidebar. You can donate money if you like the site/boards, want to support us, or want to be a part of the reason for the soon-to-come upgrades.

Thanks in advance to anyone who contributes!  👏

EDIT: Or, you can sign up for eBay to support the site. Just use the following link:

Yes, it’s a Paypal donations button. I put it near the bottom because…I dunno…I feel weird making it more prominent. I hate having to even put it there at all.

Any amount that you want to give, we will gladly take - whether that is $1.00 or $100…completely up to you.

I never even thought of CJ offers. Of course it would make sense, with all the people that do free offers on this site! 😊

Thanks brookey - I plan on doing a complete redesign of the site, having it done by a professional company. I am also purchasing more webspace, a different blogging program, etc. So far this week I have spent over $500 on different upgrades, and I am nowhere near done yet.

I think I will do the CJ thing. It makes perfect sense.

I get paid tomorrow…perhaps I’ll make a donation. 

I also put up the loot for the autoconga, so hopefully we can have that launched by the end of the week.

Another way you people can help is by linking to http://www.gearlive.com and www.gearlive.com/forums this doesn’t cost any money, but will result in more search engine spiders hitting the site…which ultimately gets higher PR [page rank] and in the long run drives more users here.
