Combined Web Sites
August '08- July '09
Support Drive
As always, the staff at CFF, Alex O'Loughlin.org, Vamploves.com and Heathbaby want you to know that if it was not for our generous members.. these site would not exist.
CFF is currently on a server with three other fansites. CFF has the highest usage of bandwidth and server resources. It also has a much larger membership. The cost for the dedicated server is $203.31 quarterly. Some of this cost is off set by various ad banners on CFF and Heathbaby, as well as on AlexOloughlin.org (amazon.com, google ads, cafe press etc). Right now the Amazon and Google income is fairly evenly split among the three sites. The google income is averaging about $30 a quarter for each site. This is up from last year. We get paid about a month after the total earned reaches $100. The income from Amazon is also up this year from last's year total. The total is usually about $15.00 a month. It is also split fairly evenly among the sites. However these totals do not generate enough income to support the site. Also, Vamploves.com does not have any ads on it and so the only support generated there is from donations. That is why we rely on the generous support of our members
As in the past..there is no "minimum" donation required. Whatever you can afford is fine. No donation is too small. In past years one of our moderators came up with $24 a year as a goal amount. We realize that not everyone can afford that..and we thank those who are able to pay more than the goal amount.
*Important*: This new statement (30 Jan 2009) reflects the charges for "Server 2" which is paid monthly and houses AlexOloughlin.org's main site. The gallery and news for AlexOloughlin.org are housed on Server 1. For this reason, I thought it was best to combine all charges as well as credits. I have noted in the member donation area, which sites those people designated their support for.
If you are in a postition to donate now you can use the PAYPAL button below to donate directly to the Support account.. or if you prefer to send a check snail mail please email me at cffadmin@colinfarrellfansite.com. Also, if you cannot donate right now, that is fine. We accept donations all through the year. We make payments quarterly on Aug 1, Nov 1, Feb 1 and May 1. So if you cannot donate whatever the next payment date is.., you can donate later ..in time for the payment after that.
Again, this year, anyone who donates any amount and is a member of the CFF forum,
will have a Financial Supporter banner under their avatar as an added rank.
As in the past, I would like to express my gratitude to the people who frequent all of these site and support it in all ways. I could never run this site without everyone's help, financially, emotionally and with submissions of news and scans. Most of you know that I started this back in 2001 as a hobby and as a way to learn website design it took on a life of it's own..and has grown to the be the large successful site that is today with the support of many, many people. The members at this site have become a "second family" to me ..and I think alot of you feel the same way. I want you to now how much I appreciate you all!!
