I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'll sponsor through donation and not be forced to looked at advertisements.
By sponsoring through donation you know every single penny of donation is going towards the benefit of the author.
Sounds fair enough, but then on there is the flipside. I just don't feel comfortable accepting money from people, as daft as it sounds. It's not that I am being stubborn just so I can say I am the only one that pays anything for the site, I know the adverts will eventually re-emberse me.
The site has to be able to pay for itself and the advertising allows it to do that. Eventually/hopefully it will get to the stage where I won't have paid anything for the site, and I wouldn't want others to be out of pocket when we get to that stage.
All our software licences have now been purchased, well until around next may

P) so the advertising only has to pay for those licences between now and then and cover the hosting every month.
