Help Polyloop.net: Donate! - Polyloop

Thomas · 29th April 2006, 18:53

Hi!

Edit - donations are now closed. Polyloop.net have enough money to be indepandant ;)
Thanks for the donators, you can check their names in the link below or at the end of this post.

As I mentionned on some thread about the futur of polyloop.net, I built a webpage for those of you who want to donate, for the hosting, etc.

It's not an obligation at all!

Thanks for your support!

That's it!!
I'm feeling like a sponsor now...

AlainK · 29th April 2006, 20:24

This site has probably generated thousands of dollars for Eovia. Don't tell me Eovia is not contributing even a dollar for this site.

Pete Exxtreme · 29th April 2006, 23:51

This website is owned by Thomas and not by Eovia....

Sardtok · 30th April 2006, 00:28

He said contributed, not that they weren't paying for their own site, but that they weren't contributing to a site that were getting them revenue...

Thomas · 30th April 2006, 09:55

Eovia Europe helped me (a lot) before for the charges of this website.. but it won't be possible anymore.
And thanks Fabster! (I can add your name in the list?)

fabster · 30th April 2006, 12:17

Sure, go ahead!
And thanks again for spending so much time with that forum!

Corndog · 30th April 2006, 14:26

Thomas.. I will be happy to support.

There is a site called swiftdev that is the same as this. Runs privately but supports a swift 3d users. We contributed there as well to keep it up and running.

Thomas over there we put a small logo with contributor written on it under the contributors name. This would show new and other members who contributed and promote others to do so,

Joppe · 30th April 2006, 15:36

Thomas I'm happy to support also.
Keep up the good works.

Joppe

-ash- · 30th April 2006, 16:26

OK, I made a donation

let's keep this place running.

Thomas,

Not sure if you want to tell us this but, how much does it cost per month to keep this site going?

I think this is a great idea!

vagula2002 · 1st May 2006, 12:05

Thanks Thomas for all the things you do!

I made a donation for this great site so I hope you can keep doing them.

schuubars · 1st May 2006, 12:54

donated a bit too, hope it helps.

Thomas · 1st May 2006, 13:34

Cornodog: I'll try to find a way to do that, it's a very good idea !

I try to update each time the donation page with the name of the donators. But I'm not sure I have all nicknames. Please, check the bottom of the page and tell me if i forgot you or if I type a wrong nickname !

And thanks again all for your support !!!

marcovth · 1st May 2006, 13:36

Thomas, check if you pay too much.

My sites are hosted by powweb.com:
- 20 GB storage.
- 400 GB traffic/month (~13GB/day) !
- PHP / 5 mySQL databases.
- Your sites run through 5 Unix (backup) servers.
- $200 / 2 years.

http://powweb.com/PowWeb/OnePlan/Detail

I never had access problems.

Thomas · 1st May 2006, 16:09

I pay a little bit more a year, but i have real admins availabe when I need, no bandwidth limits, no database limitations, as emails, etc. In fact, I don't want to change of hosting at all

But thanks for the tips !

PS: for the bandwdth limits, 168 Gb were out yesterday...

Corndog · 3rd May 2006, 20:22

Thomas..
I have made my contribution sorry for the delay. keep up the great work.

-ash- · 3rd May 2006, 21:28

I've just checked the home page and there are over 4500 members here. If Thomas is paying let's say $250 a year. Then if everyone donates a dollar that would give us $4500 or roughly 18 years of hosting.

Taking into account rising prices let's call it 10 years. So, a decade of Eovia3D.net for a dollar. Sounds good to me.

Unless I've got my figures wrong

Thomas · 4th May 2006, 13:55

Cornodog: under which 'realname' did you donate plese (I don't know everybody name

-ash-: The donator are added to the donate page each time I have new one. It's far away from the 4500.. but currently, I have enough for a year and a half. But extra money perhaps will give me the opportunity to add new services to Eovia3D.net, like personnal blogs, etc.
But I'll also have to add more storage... attachement and gallery take a lot of hosting ;)

And thanks again for all the donators!!!
