there do seem to be some regular contributors who haven't yet announced their willingness to donate: I can only think that this is an oversight on their part rather than real stinginess.

No it's definitely stinginess on my part.   ;D

And the 'contributing member' guilt-trip inducer just makes me less inclined to contribute.

I don't have a paypal account...is there any other way to donate?

No Domi...he doesn't take payment in kind!    ;D

Hey Stew,

Admin almost has to go cap in hand for a 99 quid upgrade!

I am not going cap in hand, I could afford to upgrade myself

Probably the wrong term of phrase but the point remains the same.  Between us, we have not managed 99 quid to get an upgrade, that would benefit us all.

And as far as you being in a position to afford the upgrade yourself Stew, again, that's not the point.  The point is, we need an upgrade for all the reason that you pointed out in another thread.  I would have thought that between us, we would have far exceeded the 99 quid needed based on the amount of active members.

I don't have a paypal account...is there any other way to donate?

Domi, it's really easy to set up a paypal account, and I personally think that it's one of the safest ways to transfer money across the net, unless somebody knows different?

Sorry if it seems like I'm on my "high horse", I'm reading this back, and I'm coming across like a right T**t.  I'm not on a rant, honest :

I contributed a while ago & I never got a "contributing member" title, a thanks or any recognition for doing so which I never expected anyway, but I don't care as I just like the website & that is why I contributed.  So I am sure SS that you don't have to have the contributing member title on you name if you wish to contribute.

It appears under some member's names, before their "qualification", as in

Dibb117
* CONTRIBUTING MEMBER
* Sous Chef

and presumably indicates (some of) those who have used the "Donate" link in the past.

Oh, that's funny? - made a couple of donations now, and I don't have that on my 'thingy-bob' on the left.

Oh well.

I always assumed it was to indicate members who have posted recipes, but the donation thing makes more sense.

Anyway, I can't actually remember if I donated last time, so I've donated a fiver just in case.
