Asking Snowcat Community for Help Once Again: Please Donate

Please Consider Donating
Many have seen the server busy try again later error message. I have bumped up the threshold so that it does not show up as much but when we get to that threshold the server will crash. I have made the decision to migrate to new software that will offer quite a few advantages. It works much better with mobile devices. It lets you add more than one pic at a time and it's what I'd call a cleaner design. It is faster since it runs the current supported version of PHP; so all the errors that are causing the server issues now should go away. Downside, it's different. Nobody likes change, including me. I have painted us into a corner trying to avoid change and now is the time I have to bust through the wall to another room. I have been working with this software this past week and now I find it similar to our current version of vBulletin.

As you might guess all this is costing a lot more than I had budgeted for this years expenses so I am asking those who can to donate this year. If you can donate I have a small giveaway while supplies last. Giveaway items listed by the different amounts.
Thanks for your consideration.

if you were able to come for a couple days that would be great and quite sure more than one person would be more than happy to have you ride with them, and pretty sure you would end up get some seat time behind the wheel, I know I would be happy for you to drive my cat,

How about one night, we do meet and greet after dinner drinks, I would be happy to host...

better yet, I will get you a room for 2 nights, bring a guest, no cost to you and happy to buy dinner also.

come and see how much you have done to further snow catting.

what say you?

Wow, what a deal. I would truly love to. I did check your dates and I have a conflict but ...I still might be able to work something out. Thank you so much for the generous offer. I've heard of Sun Valley and this would sure be an awesome way to see it especially with all yous guys cool cool machines. What airport would be closest to fly into?

first, we are there from the 10th of march to the 16th, hope that gives enough room to resolve scheduling conflicts,

if the airlines get back to some sort of normalcy, you can fly into Hailey idaho, and sun valley has shuttle service into sun valley,

worse case, is to fly into Boise Idaho and rent a car and or just maybe one of the snow catter could pick you up,

anyway, boise is 150 miles away, a 3 hour drive, good roads all the way.

thank you for even thinking about coming out,

without your forums, there would be no snow catting community and all the great gatherings of snow cats, thank you so much!

hope many folks make a donation this year, it is a worthy cause/website!

Count me in to Doc...:smile:

No time to do so this morning, but will this evening. This site is so important to snow cats, the community will help you out. Every year at the Clouder in Michigan we plug this site. I think every one of them know about Forums Forums who owns a snow cat, or they are just not looking lol..

Awesome!!!!! Thanks Kirk. If I have the funds I could get some pens or (submit idea here) that you can hand out at the snow cat get together. Pens are okay but would love to hear a better idea ....

Would a calendar be a good idea? I would need 12 pics labeled with month name and I could see how much it would cost to print them. My fear of this is without printing a huge number the cost per item would be to much for me to give away. But maybe they could be sold / ordered in advance so we know how many to many to have made.

DOC, you could make a year of it, by going to several gatherings of old snow cats, be great for your loyal subjects to meet and chat with you...
