Hi all.

The Guinea Pig Forum's web hosting package needs renewing in the next couple of days

Due to the increase in members and popularity of the forum, we will need to upgrade to the premium package.

If you would like to make a donation towards The Guinea Pig Forum, I have added a donate button via the Guinea Pig Rehome Website - http://www.guineapigrehome.org.uk - We would appreciate any amount, no matter how small, as it would really help us to keep this forum running.

If you do not have paypal. you can send your donation to

Ellie Postles

Thanks to you all for being part of The Guinea Pig Forum community.

Just sent you a pm back. Thanks so so so so much! All donations will be helping keep the forum running for the next year! I feel bad asking for donations however, because the forum has become so popular, the cost increases too. I am glad that you all think it is worth it! :)
 
Have just made a donation. Sorry it's small, don't get paid til Thursday, but can keep it regular :)

Kelly, what you have sent is really generous. Thank you! I only posted the donate link a couple of hours a go on Guinea Pig Rehome and have already raised 1/5 of the cost of the premium package already! Thanks everybody!
 
Done it, just sorry it could not be more. Have you thought about a monthly or yearly contribution? I certainly wouldn't object as I find this site invaluable.
 
I would love to donate but cant :( This site rocks!
What will the new software do?
 
I've been an admin for a site like this before, it was last year, and upgrade to the premium package means, more space. heres an example, you host the site and pay a certain amout for how much space you think you'll need, say, 5GB, then when thats running out, you upgrade to more space, say another 5GB to make it 10GB.

And sorry I can't give any donations, I do not have a paypal account, nor do I have any money :( Sorry guys.
 
I will be donating as soon as I finish writing this post! I think it's a good idea to have monthly/yearly contributions, I would certainly be up for it! And it doesn't have to be much

:)

Good luck with it all x
 
Sent a small donation-will send more when pay day comes around O0
I think it is well worth donating :D

It is not new software, the web hosting needs renewing and upgrading. Basically, I bought the name "theguineapigforum.co.uk" which you buy for 2 years (runs out next year!) - The web hosting only lasts for one year and gives you space/email accounts e.t.c for your website domain. Because this forum gets a lot of posts per day, the data transfer useage is high and has gone over the amount you can use with my current hosting package. That is why I need to upgrade to the premium package which is not cheap at alll.

Thank you Michelle. Done really well on donations so far and its all thanks to you guys - I will be ordering the new premium package tonight - If I don't they will fine me for going over the data transfer useage but if I upgrade today, they won't - Well I hope not!

Thanks again all!
 
Just done mine-let me know if you need any more or like some of the others have said a monthly/yearly donation would be ok :)
 
Thanks so much all of you! I just came back from college and had load of email notfications that donations had been made! I can't believe how much has been donated already! Thanks so so much!
