Yes, it was that long ago. You're probably thinking of the software change we did 11 months ago when we switched from yabbse to Vbulletin. That was also fairly expensive after putting in the new forums, photo albums and classifieds. I also had to pay the hosting bill for the year in April.

How are we doing on donations?? Anywheres near where we need to be for new equipment? I'm not sure I ever saw a total recently, but I did see more names pop up. Might be a good time for another push for donations. Come on everybody, dig deep. I'll see if I can get the finance department (aka my lovely wife) to approve a second dontation to the site this year.

We did receive a good amount of donations, but we are still along way away from the amont we need. I am making a thermometer to post showing the actual amounts as they come in.

Thanks again everyone for your help.

Newbies ask the same questions day in and day out, NOBODY chastises them for it HERE. They are either pointed to another thread covering the question, or more often than not, given the answer.

For your problem on searches, you may now search DTR through the Google bar at the bottom of the page.
