Save A Shack!

  Mar 06, 2001 9:22am CST tags: zGeneral News
Many of you guys probably saw this coming. Well this day is here. After carefully evaluating the financial situation surrounding this website we're in an economical jam. Money that was contractually owed to us got yanked out from under our nose and we got burned pretty good. Shack, myself, and Maarten need your help. Specifically donations. If you've ever spent a few hours here and had a great time and thought "Damn these guys deserve to get $ for this work!" then here you go.

Yes I am of course pursuing several other courses of action to generate income here including merchandise and a couple of much more interesting ideas.

Please, if you have some criticism of the page or feel like posting "Your page isnt worth a dime, I told you web advertising would fail" etc. just save it. Just read the details here and if you have it in your heart to help, thank you. If you arent interested in keeping this page alive then dont bother.

update: Ok guys it looks like Amazon's donation system is on the fritz. Stick with Paypal for now and I'll see if I can get the Amazon guys to give me an answer.
