We actually have had the busiest day from returning members within 24 hours today: "The most members online over 24 hours was 97, Today at 15:07". I think it was stuck around 75 members 6 months ago with the SC saga. Perhaps summer is over or it had something today with the mailing about the new Marketplace last night.
My theory is these forums work like cell multiplication. It starts very slow but can increase very rapidly at some point under the right conditions. 1+1=2, 2+2=4, 4+4=8 and so on.

You have to set a currency default for that plug-in. With the site hosted in Europe and Saab being European, I figured euros as the default would be appropriate. Paypal will automatically convert to your local currency.
And thanks for your donation!

AdSense is the easiest but it serves a lot of random ads. We tried it before and I don't think ads for Toyota. Chrysler, BMW, colombian and russian mail order brides like you see on SC should be on a Saab site.
I'd rather have a yearly fundraiser like public radio.
