I may be poking my nose around more than you would like; and if that's the case, just say so, and I'll let you do your thing. Do you get $ for the running advertisements sometimes seen at the top of this page.

I have no problem with full disclosure. :)

Saying how the google ads make money is a violation of my terms of service, but I think you can figure out how they generate money. But it's very minimal, believe me.

The other ads on the front page make decent money, but the site has it's share of other costs. The domain names www.thewarpath.net (http://www.thewarpath.net) and www.redskinswarpath.com (http://www.redskinswarpath.com) are both registered to this site, and during the season I frequently have to purchase additional bandwidth. We were maxing out 80GB 2 weeks into the month at times due to the wild popularity of the film room. I also frequently hire programmers for updates, and for when we had to move the site to a new server, etc.

I wish I was getting rich off this site believe me.

It's all for a good cause and 99% of the money taken in goes right back into the site.

If you'd like to donate feel free, if not that's not a problem either.

We have Google Ads on our site and after the first year I "may" be able the cheapest warpath t-shirt.
lol

Our costs are about 1/3 of yers Matty but we are going to do a fund drive this month too.

I'm a little short this week in my PayPal account this week but will slap some in there and on it's way to ya'll. This site is a MUST CHECK site many times a day if near a PC.

A heartfelt thanks Matty and [motley] crew

I just chucked in some long-overdue duckets. I'll try to give a little more later in the year - ya know, try to space out the love.

How do you turn off that green "Contributor" sign?

EDIT: Nevermind - I found the option in the control panel.

Damn triple posters.

I have to ask - could you transfer to a 1and1.com hosting account? They offer 250GB/month bandwidth for $36/year.

Or do you need a dedicated server? Just trying to help!
