[Meta] Helping with the Forums
 
#4
Look, folks, last I checked, the forums weren't in danger of going under for lack of funds. Since I lost my job a year ago, Rob and Jeanne and a few other folks have thrown enough money into the community chest to keep us going for a good while yet -- I just checked and we have a bit under half a million pageviews left in the coffers, which should hold us for several months. If people want to help keep the forums going, it's a lot easier to just Paypal $5 or $10 or $25 into the community chest. And coordinating who collects the money for any sales made, and how often it gets deposited into the chest, and -- so no one has any complaints -- coming up with some way of making sure that person's being completely honest about the whole procedure, well, that's probably more work than is necessary.

On the other hand, having Fenwear would be pretty cool. I have no problems with someone setting up a Cafepress or other store, with all the appropriate permissions from the artists being gotten. Just set the profit margin to 0 and forget about using it to generate revenue.
