Hey Folks,

We're putting a humble-yet-shameless request out there for support :D

Our bandwidth costs a few hundred bucks a month to run this site, and we're basically asking you to go buy a signed picture of Wild Bill to help offset our expenses. We're selling the very-cool pencil sketch by Dean Rohrer for $29.99 plus shipping.

Proceeds go directly into the month-to-month operation of this website.

Thanks in advance for helping us out! Perhaps a great early Christmas present!

Gino

Hi Gino,

I know it sounds a bit cheeky and you can tell me to go and jump -- but if you know it's one of your regulars from this site that have purchased a print, what would be the chances of the print being personalised?

I for one would be willing to pay a bit extra -- knowing that is also for the up keep of this truly excellent site that we are all so proud to be a part of!!!

Regards,

Pat.

Hey Pat,

The issue, as always, is catching up with Wild Bill. I won't see him until December, probably, so we've had the pictures pre-signed for fast shipment...

Of course the other issue is that if we do it for one...

Sorry!

Gino

Hi Gino,

No worries -- you know the old saying, well here in the UK at least -- if you don't ask you don't get!!!

Regards,

Pat.

P.S. -- Gino, I've just noticed that it is available within US only -- any chance you can post to the UK?

Is there than a chance to ship it also to Holland? As you know Gino I didn't get it on ebay but I really want one.

Gino, not that I'm in a position to do this, but have you considered having people sponsor the site a month at a time? A few hundered might be possible for some, or a few who get together.

Just an idea. :D

Feeling guilty for my bandwith consumption.

GIno,

Sorry if my question is dumb, but we used to pay a yearly subscription, didn't we?

Is that out of the way?

Hey Nat,

Subscriptions are optional here, but certainly help. They only make up a very nominal percentage, however, of our monthly bandwidth and hosting fees. But every little bit helps and we appreciate it!

Great idea. It would need to be in exchange for something, however, such as ad space, etc.

The Ebay version of the print ships to the US only, but you can buy the same print from our store and we'll ship it right overseas!

Thanks!

Gino
