Well the Tassie guys know about it, but there's no message here about it.
Nebs what's the point of having a donate button if you don't tell everybody here about it?

Ha ha thanks for that Decrepit

tbh I'm a bit embarrassed at having to ask for money, so didn't want to really push it...

We'll take the link down once we've got enough for some more medals and trophies... which won't take all that long going by the number of generous souls who have already donated!

Thanks for donating, it's very much appreciated

Don't think anybody here, wants you and hardie to run this out of your own pockets.

Donations are probably a good way of including the Internationals, the cost of posting merchandise around the globe makes that way impracticable.

oooohhh much embarresment
I tried again and again to donate on credit card and pay pal and failed.
Then I e-mailed to let Nebs know I could not get it to work.
Just tried again and of course it works, operator error on my part.
For anyone out there who like me fails the steps are: (seems obvious to me now)

enter dollar value, hit 'update totals' button then enter payment method (card or paypal) (It was not hitting update totals which was my undoing)

May thanks to Nebs for setting this up.

I suggest leaving it up for a while and generating enough cash so Nebbian does not have to be putting in the time to do this too often.

Leave the link up, then hopefully you won't have to ask again!

Nebs and Hardie maybe an easier( cheaper) way would be design a template and email certificates to the winning team members with their names on it and times etc for the month , I've just quickly thrown one togther to show what i mean, they could laminate them for keepsake.

Thanks to all the generous sailors who invested their hard earned money into the site.

Now we have enough to get some more trophies and medals!

Sincerely, thank you

Nice one, that was really quick, it shows how many people appreciate your efforts.

Any chance of a link to my news site again? it got loads of hits from yours. If it keeps growing the way it is and I end up making an income from it in the future I will pay for the medals etc myself, thats a promise.

Also if any of the team captains can write about their spots and team it would be great, loads of people wrote either to me or on the forums about how good Lao Shi and Decrepits articles were and how good it was to get to know other teams.
(sorry for hyjacking your thread with a blatent pimp, I am trying to promote GPSTC though more than anything else)

Cheers Nebs! I feel honoured that I am up there in that section

Could I be cheeky and ask you to change the name to RedSurfBus.com no spaces. I am getting a lot of hits from people just googling the name now so the brand image is building........then I can sell redsurfbus tshirts and donate a bit more cash to the whole reason behind it........GPSTC! ;-)
