The Giant is growning.
So we are now really close to outgrowing the hosting plan I am on.
What does this mean?
The site in the next month or so will start costing about $20/mo.
So, as much as I love this site... im not a rich man, and my money is actually Illyana's money.
So if you love the site, and can afford it, please donate to the giant.
Wiki page on how to do it. If you cant, its ok. And It does not have to now. It will be around for awhile.
[wiki]Donate[/wiki]
If you donate through A Small Orange (the hosting company), the money goes directly to them, and never touches my hands.
Thanks in advance,
-Adam
If you think I am personally doing a good job, and just want to send me money... Im ok with that.
PS
Please dont ask me to just change hosting companies. I have tried MANY. and none are even close.

Change hosting company
Seriously though, if you ever feel like your hosting is just not up to it, MediaTemple are considered the best host out there, and they have just released a scalable grid hosting platform. They also have a sexy website!

I had them. Would never go back. Their sql commands are limited to 5mb. And they fail at 5mb at that. ASmallorange works with 50mb ones. Needed incase of failure.
Also, they oversell their servers. There is no way they could transfer 1tb of bandwidth for $10.
With ASO, I know that I am allowed to actually use what I pay for.

Not sure what you mean here? Their database sizes are 5Mb or their is a limit to the actual query of 5Mb? If you are pulling 5 megabytes worth of data out of a database, you are doing something wrong!
There's a link in the print section here.
here's a direct link to the donation page.
Im not seeing one on the home page.
