There was a discussion started about having supporting members to the PghOffRoad site. Some of the benefits suggested involved having some photo hosting, members rigs section, and a few other things...
Thoughts, opinions, etc???

I'm all for a members rig section, even if we have to host them elsewhere as is being done now...
But, I'm also willing to support the forum if it goes that way as well....
I can put the Truck of the Month thread into it...
"Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs."
If there's enough interest, we can definitely do it. This site is on the same server as Mallcrawlin and has plenty of space / bandwidth for photos and whatnot, I just never wanted to since pghoffroad is more of a "money out" than "money in" thing. I'd been hesitant to try this because of the politics involved, but I wouldn't mind recouping some of the costs here and give out photo hosting, maybe even user galleries.
I figure it is a good thing. Why should one or two people have to cover the costs to run the board? I figure this way it is self-sufficient. It isn't really going to make money, just cover the expenses.

You really think people would want to give money for a few "features" on the POS board? Huh? Do you really?
I agree w/ bill...I don't know how much you guys pay per month or whatever but I wouldn't mind being a supporting member if this site goes that way. You could even make it like some of the other forums and send those pgh offroad stickers when people become a supporting member.

We'd have to talk to Dana about that one, he prints all the stickers...I'm sure if he saw some of the supporting funds he'd have no problem but, that might get too complicated to have to share the funds....
"Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs."
Just buy a stack of stickers off Dana up front.
I'm down
I am sure we could always produce something (t-shirts. polo shirts, etc.) and tack a dollar or two dollar surcharge on them to cover the site costs too.
(Just another idea on that front...)

I'll talk to Dana about this, it's his logo too after all. If it goes through this will still take me a lil' while to do right.
LOL!
Will still be free, I've been pretty adamant about that on Mallcrawlin too (there's not even a hidden section for paying members). Just added benefits
For as many 'members' as there are here, I think a small contribution would be a great thing. I wouldnt mind putting up some money to help keep everything running smoothly.
Definately for it. Not necessarily a "members" thing....just a support the site deal.
A PGH sticker and the ability to edit my user title would be the only 2 things I'd want in exchange
Women have clothes and shoes....we get welding and tools!....and the women!
I dont think the admins would give up the power to change your user title, I mean it shows their creativity!!
I can see where one would be jealous of "unleash the chicken!"
but, I'm sure if you asked nicely they might change it for you.
