    Can you put your cost/loss as a graph on the side bar where the donation buttons are? Wonder if that would help some.

    One other thing, i would not show the YTD as a large number like that can actually prevent people from donating as they will feel its hopeless.

    Also, still offering free hosting on my home server, if/where it helps.

      I thought about that. I’m not trying to discourage people from joining the site though in fear that I’ll shut it off if I don’t make enough to run it.
