Ive been a member of this site for less than a week and I enjoy the heck out of it.

How can I donate to keep things running smoothly?

I think it is unfair fo a few moderators to pay out of pocket to keep things going.

They are different sites.

They are united now.The server expenses of 240SX.org are covered by NICO, with 240SX.org being a part of NICO.You can enter 240SX.org eitehr thru NICO homepage as one of NICO boards or thru the seperate 240SX.org homepage.

I think NICO as whole benefits from the incraesed membership and the youthful energy of those members ,and the 240 crowd benefits from our online mechanic boards, as well as the general collection of Guru's that NICO attracts.

Actually we do have membership dues, but have never really enforced them and I belive we are moving to a donation system.

The NICO Homepage until recently had a "join us for $35" button.This link could be used to donate via credit card to NICO/240SX.org.

The link will be back soon ,I am unsure in what exact configuration.

Those of you that enter via the NICO homepage, will have noticed that we are experimenting with different designs in the last week or so and are rotating them thru our homepage.We have a professional web hosting service do this for us.

But the link for donations will return as soon as we have settled on our new NICO homepage.

Anybody care to make a pledge for a donation now?

damn if had the money i'd drop it in a second to you guys. this site has taught me a lot about nissans in general. there are some very knowledgable and obsessive people here, and i think i've become one of them. the obsessive part.

It doesn't have to be a lot, even $10 dollars would help..especially if a bunch of people would do it.

Think, about all the good stuff everybody learned here, I think we definetly saved members a lot of money, at least with our maintenace know-how.

So if I donate to 240sx.org the money will go to upkeep both sites?

Either way yes I am interested in donating.

One site , one server, 240SX.org is one of teh NICO boards and you can reach it via the NICO forums list, by clicking on the "240SX Forum" link.

The only difference between the 240SX forum and the other forums is that you can also access the 240SX forum thru its own seperate portal as it had tradition as its own site.

That portal runs thru the same server as the rest of NICO though.So a donation will support the fees to that server, which carries traffic for all forums.A hi percentage of NICO traffic is generated here on the 240Sx forums, so it would go to your most used forum mostly anyway.

I've been badgering about this for ages now.... I'm pretty sure I was one of the only people who ever inquired about buying stickers from 240sx.org, but SHawn never got back to me.Like I've always said, and will always say.

Just point me towards where to pay.

true. I would buy a NICO or 240sx.org sticker for up to 15 dollars, hell 15 dollars isnt much, but I'd be glad to donate it.
