I'd like to thank everyone who has offered support for the site in 2025. That support allows me to keep the site running, for the cost of operation would otherwise come out of my own pocket, which I could not justify, especially now that I'm retired.
We are not too far off from realizing the support goal/requirement for 2025. If you can afford to chip in to help reach that goal, I'm sure everyone here would appreciate it. I know I certainly would. If you have already contributed for 2025 or the 2025 goal is met and you would like to help out for next year, I have set up the goal for 2026, which currently is an estimate.
This is a great community that has exceeded my expectations in many ways. My goal is to keep these appeals for support largely restricted to the end of the calendar year so that the idea of an "ad free" site for creatives includes being "plea free" for much of time, as well. Again, thanks to the generosity of those who have already contributed for 2025 for permitting this mostly nag-free approach.
Hope everyone is getting some value from the site, and thanks again for participating, even if you cannot afford to contribute financially. Thanks especially to the editors of the site, particularly Raymond Huffman, Jenn Zed, and most recently Grady VanWright, whose efforts this year have kept the place running and have included placing noteworthy forum submissions on the site's front page. If you would like to contribute as an editor, please let one of us know. Editors are not paid; they perform the work largely for the creative enjoyment they derive from selecting and showcasing work for the front page.
I wish everyone health and happiness for the remainder of this year and beyond.
