Aussie Pinball Upkeep and donations
« on: April 30, 2024, 05:26:01 PM »
I understand the site does not have the amount of traffic and posting of it's glory days, but I'd like to keep it going - not only as a historical record, but I'd love to add the recent restos etc that I've been doing.

It costs $750 per annum to run. The only way it can run is with donations, and they dried up a while ago. Although I'm happy to keep paying for it, I will need to cut costs as last year it didn't "break even" to pay for Codeguard backup.

So if donation don't cover Codeguard, I'm gonna cancel it. I'm good with that as we have never had any major problems.

If any of you have spare $ - hit that "Donations" button. I would like to keep the site up and running as much as I can. If not - all good - Thanks for looking.

If you don't have paypal - PM and I'll send Bank Account details.

Thanks in advance.
