Greetings folks :-)
Recently I put up some of my best wood for sale in the classifieds section to raise some cash to pay the server bill.
I have managed to sell 2 sets. Many thanks to those two buyers. Everything helps!

If you are not in need of tonewoods yet would still like to help, please consider
donating a few bucks to lance@kragenbrinkguitars.com

Again, everything helps!

Another way to help is to bookmark our Amazon link (found above) and use it EVERY TIME you make a
purchase on Amazon. Amazon will kick back a few cents for every purchase made
at no additional cost to you.

I am happy giving up my choice woods if it goes towards keeping our community alive and online.
That said, two sets just isnt going to go very far.

Thanks for your consideration,

Lance

Seems like this comes up every year. I'd be willing to pay a small annual fee, but I guess that's sort of how I see the classifieds.

I was just investigating if Ukulele Underground had Tapatalk. They don't and the reason why is Tapatalk takes all the ad Revenue when people are using it on their mobile, but they still rely on the cites server. I love Tapatalk and is probably the main reason why I am on here so much. It makes it much faster. I wonder if there is any movement to spread that love a little...

Pat, drop a dollar a month on the Patreon maybe? It comes right out of my Paypal every month. I do $5, but you can do as little or much as you want.

Hopefully Lance will correct me if he'd rather not have folks use the Patreon. I like it because it just happens, no need to remember to renew or do it each month. Perfect for forgetful folks like me.

Now, if I could just find my keys... :D

Great forum - couldn't imagine being without it.

Patreon works well for me - makes it easy to make an automatic donation to the OLF every month.

Well I had not renewed my classifieds subscription in an attempt to stop shopping; but Lance needs help so I'm back in.
A couple times now I have read about Lance selling his woods to keep the site afloat and thats just not right.

Maybe a little more openness on server costs and upkeep in order to make people aware of what it takes to keep this site running?
Perhaps using a phpBB extension that accepts donations via PayPal and gives real-time donation/goal progress might work better?
This keeps things in plain view on every visit to the site.

Things that get measured get done.

How many active members here are part of the classifieds? If it is not most of them, why not post the server wood here?
