Funding

Post by jsgksu »

I dont know if this has ever been discussed but have you ever thought of adding like a single popup or just an ad on the homepage or something, I read the article about your new guitar and it mentioned all the money you put into this site at the end of if. We all love the site and Im sure that no one on here would raise a stink over a popup if it lightened your wallet and helped to progress the site.

I agree...one popup will not discourage me form this site.....maybe there are some out there that are guitar related...

I'm for a popup...especially if it help you out.

I'm sorry. NIX THIS THREAD.

Banner ads I'll take. Pop-ups - well, let's just say you won't be seeing me on the boards any more (one of my pet peeves).

We do have the PayPal system for users to donate to kanter, ya'know...

I have already donated and not every one can......he can make money with ads.

I still think one popup would befine with me. Baner ads would be fine as well.

Banners can get messy and bring the sightliness of the site down :lol:

I would go with pop ups WAY before banners...

Well, if I have any say (and I hope I do ;)), pop-ups are right out. We do need some funding, and we're kind of brainstorming a couple things, but nothing is for sure yet by a long-shot.
