Maybe we could do it PBS style and have a webcast telethon to raise money. Get some extra from the show to sing a terrible rendition of the Firefly Theme and then say call the number paypal operators are standing by.

That would be epic. A few other ideas for a telethon:
Prior to the telethon, we hold a vote for the top 5 episodes. Throughout the telethon, we announce each one in reverse order, with #5 at the beginning and #1 at the end.

I didn't read through the thread, so sorry if its been brought up already, but maybe someone can set up a table at D*C to start a fund?

I just made some purchases on Amazon through your links to help out a bit... but I know it's gonna take a lot more than that to keep FFF.net running.

I'm sure the folks here would be happy to toss in some coin each month to keep this shiny site in the Black up and running. Maybe you can set up some kind of little graph next to your PayPal donate button. The graph could track donations per month and show if the site expenses are being covered. The bar could display 50%, or 63%, etc., and if it's getting near the end of the month and more coin is needed then folks can toss in what they can.

Just a thought. Let us know when you've got a plan, or even a rough sketch... we can work with a rough sketch.

Please let me know how to help. If needing cashy money is there an address I can send a donation? Not sure how you intend to work this HAKEN but I am in the UK, a widow and a pensioner, so will be wanting to send my money by post. Would also like to know whether it would be a monthly donation or whatever. That is, if the big money grabbing *hundan* don't come to their senses and kick this stupid idea into touch. I mean, how much money are they going to lose setting up this taxation scheme when companies like Amazon drop their associates like a hot brick? Somebody at the top of their murky food chain isn't thinking this through. I'm thinking they are from the shallow end of the gene pool.

Keep us updated and let us know what you need. I can make a monthly donation thru PayPal and carry others, maybe a few of the student writers that post fic:)

Hi all,

First off, thank you all for your support. I was at my daughter's Girl Scout Camp this weekend and couldn't followup on what's been happening with this Amazon thing since Friday and also to send a personal thank you note to all of you who have donated money. I will definitely send those as soon as I can.

I'll try and get caught up as soon as I can and post an update.

Till then, you can follow me on Twitter if you want or become my friend on Facebook for any updates that I might post.

On Twitter, it's: http://twitter.com/haken
