This sneaked up on us again I'm afraid. The website gave me a warning a couple of month back which I ignored (had no time). Today was the final day I could renew the website so I made sure I came on and did this today. The problem is chaps - I really can't afford this at the moment with being just after xmas etc. I've already fronted the cash and my overdraft is looking rather sizable already - I know that the deal I've got isn't the best - I simply don't have the time to shop around (it was due to expire today!) skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=158CFCC1FED03042!166 It's came to 180 pound to renew the website hosting and domain renewal fees - a very sore day in the Allison household. If anyone could help me out by contributing some small amount towards this costs I would greatly appreciate it. My PayPal is andy@sega8bit.com I also just got to say that I'm not very active here at the moment and am unlikely to be in the future with a second kid coming along in July. For me this is pretty much going to be the last time I will renew this, if anyone is willing to lift this responsibility to keep the website running then please PM me. PS Hope you all had a good xmas and new year!

Hi Andy, sent you some funds, I'm sure we'll manage to get the whole cost covered, we can't possibly lose something as valuable as this!

I'm fairly new here but love reading the site/forums and i'll be happy to donate a tenner when on paypal later.
How about setting up an e bay account and anyone with duplicates etc could, if they wish, donate them to the site so they could be sold on to help with costs? That could generate a nice little kitty...

Received with thanks Allan If I had the power to make you find random copies of Smurfs 2 everywhere you looked for one, I would do it for you (I'm afraid I can't mind you - so please accept my thanks instead)

How much does it cost exactly in a year? Every year 180 pounds? It´s a lot of money and it stands to reason that you can´t pay all that alone with 2 kids in the future (by the way, good luck Andy ). Maybe we, the community members around here, could spend a little bit and collect the money to get the full amount for keeping our favourite site alive every year. Without sega8bit, I wouldn´t know all the things I know today. It´s the only community where I am registered (except the WaterMelon boards, but that doesn´t count) and I am not registered at german websites. I can´t help now (my budget is low) but I promise I will help next month. Maybe Ian and Stan could team up together to lead sega8bit. Ian worked so hard at the site last year, it would be a shame if the site should be deleted one day.
