Yes, how should I send money through snail mail, I'm kind of far away and I'm doubtful that it'll get there intact?

And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Haven't had a problem with money not arriving from out of town in the (nearly) 5 years I've been taking donations. I wouldn't worry too much.

It's not much, but it's all this out of work student can come up with at the moment. There will be more in February.

I just sent another donation.

As far as new features to TFP...I like it the way it is. Although I don't know what my opinion is worth on this matter; what with my whopping .33 posts per day, or whatever it is.

I like the idea of basing access on board contribution, but I wonder what my "contributions" to the board will earn me? I think most of my posts are pretty decent, but I don't always have time to post. And sometimes I browse the forum, but don't have anything to add - thus no responses from me.

E-fundage is winging it's way through the ether to you.

I'd like to kick around the idea of a TFP map linked, maybe on top with the User CP/Journals/Search buttons. I know we have at least one map, but I'd have to remember who posted about it, seach through the posts, try to find the url...although thankfully Charlatan has it in his signature, yes?

But I think it'd be nice to have a directly linked map button or something like, so when we go afield, it's easier to see who's where, and set up get-togethers (my not-so-secret passion!).

Yes, I too, will be mailing a check this weekend. It's been great being part of this - our - community and I hope 2007 will be a wonderful year for all of us.

Halx, BTW - what are you studying in college? I think that you'd be fun to have as a classmate!!

Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Happy Kwanza, Ho Ho Ho and ALL the Rest to You & Yours,

Ah yea I remember reading that I just didn't remember that there was a specific number of posts before you get your avatar. I'm not really worried about it anyway. I just enjoy reading what the people here have to say about certain issues. It's nice to have a board with mature people that have intelligence.

With the rate I post I'll probably have my avatar in 2 years. OMG like I'm so excited!!!!11

Something I think would be a nice feature: A spell-check function.

Would it be possible to have the Forum Jump listbox at both the top and the bottom of the page? It'd just make it easier to switch between forums if you didn't have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page.
