Exclamation Webmaster's Dream Server...

I just moved the site to my own server last year and although it would be great to have even more horsepower, a new server is not on the agenda this year.

The "Webmaster's Dream Server" would cost $3000-$5000. I'm not sure if that could be raised by donations.

The challenge has been put to us.

What say you, Forum members - all 1,259 of us?

Are we up to the challenge?

Will we be able to make the Webmaster's Dream Server a reality?

Question: Who is best served by a mightier server?

Answer: We, the users, viewers, and posters of this site - that’s who.

P.S.- Tomorrow's mail will carry a check to the Webmaster to officially start the quest for a mightier server. Why? Because this site with all of its debates, info (even some of FLL's is useful), and, not to forget, the PhotoPosts (they eat a server and look around for more to satiate their appetite) have provided me with a means of maintaining some degree of sanity, as well as, just plain, good old fashion entertainment. Hope all who feel the same and who are able, will also support the Webmaster's Dream Server.


Thank you, in advance,

GWC...
