What are supporters? I think everyone who posts here is a supporter... Or did I get that wrong? ;)

Financial Supporters I thought they were?
* Using the old Amstrad Languages :D * And create my own ;)
* Incorporating the Firmware :P
* I also like to problem solve code in BASIC :)   * And type-in Type-Ins! :D

Look for the manager in this forum. He's the one who absorbs the money.

Hmmm you mean that's the reason why Gryzor drives a Lamborghini and I still walk by foot?

Does he belong to their caste of politicians who ruin their country?

I thought he had a job in graphics?

Hahahaha :D

Those are old donations, they went to Kangaroo. We didn't get any donations after the move (weird?)...

In marketing I am, graphics not.

I am confused.

My understanding was that Kangaroo's hosting was expensive.
Markus' hosting in comparison is very much cheaper...?

So is there now a need to donate to keep it going?

Kangaroo's hosting didn't cost a dime, since it was hosted at his company; as a marginal cost, then, it was non-existent (even if Kangaroo has put himself down as a donor of some €3000 IIRC???). People did donate money though, some of them a lot.

Markus is paying for the host now, but when we had a donation system up noone stepped forward... And it's the limiting factor why we haven't moved to a much better host by now (well, as far as I'm concerned).

Devilmarkus

The actual costs are about 40€/year.
So a donation is not really necessary but would help to keep the forum/wiki online.

I will try to explain:
- A donation brings much motivation
- Also 40€ is money ;)
- Actually we use ~20Gb of webspace. So we still are far away from 100Gb available. But when the day will come, that we need more, we also have higher costs.

That's all very confusing, cause I was under the impression the people who had medals beside them had contributed in the past. At least I thought that was what I had seen on the Wiki and thought that was the reasoning behind why some members had medals.  :-\

Hi...
Don't know if it was allready talked about...


When I am in "post reply" window, I see the different editing options as text, not icons...
is this normal ?
How can I switch back into Icons ?


Thx.


Picture related.

Gryzor

Ooh yes, it happens here too. Thanks for pointing that out, I'll look into it.

Well the fact it say's on the front page "Currently there is no need to donate. Please consider helping the CPC-Wiki in other ways, donating your time instead." might have something to do with it.
P.S. Am I the only person for whom all the editor buttons are missing images?

Before the changes took place "the CPC Wiki" Logo right up the top was a link to the Main Page to the Wiki, will that be changed back to that please?

-Logo fixed - now directs to the main CPCWiki site.

I'll try and tackle the icons issue now...

Gryzor

-Posting icons fixed. Thanks to all those who reported it!

Bryce

Grrrr, I was hoping you wouldn't notice that bit with the Logo. On ModernDark64 I always used that to refresh the Forum page, now that I'm back to default, I keep ending up back in the wiki :D

Well, there's no pleasing everyone :D

That said, below the logo there's a "Home" link ;)

Bryce

The logo is bigger and easier to "hit" than the home button :) F5 is fine, but it doesn't bring me back to the home page.
