Hi Nick,

I've used your forums a great deal and your Arduino stuff is magical information... I'd like to make a donation to you to help pay for the bandwidth I've consumed over the last year or so.

I can't find a donate button anywhere and you're settings don't allow me to private message you. (Understandably)

Could you please stick a donate button for PayPal or similar in the site or send me a PayPal userid or email via pm?

Also, what forum software are you using as I like the cleanness and would like to use it for myself?

Cheers.

I wrote it myself, I haven't packaged it up for a while, but it shouldn't be too much trouble to do if you are really keen.

I am managing it with Git these days so I can probably just push the lot to GitHub.

Getting it up and going might be slightly fiddly (I didn't make a cute little "administrators" page like some forums do).

But it is probably achievable. I can try getting a test version up on another server to work through any teething issues.

Thanks Nick,

Wonga has been sent - and don't worry about setting up the installation as I don't have the time or need at this point in time.

Regards,
Doug

Thanks for the donation. I might slowly pull the forum software into line for public distribution. There is an old version available (there is a .zip file somewhere) but that omits a lot of the newer features.
