Shifti:Site support
It's been a great run so far, and I hope it'll keep going as good. But keeping a server online is not easy or cheap. Rather than have to deal with the potential problems that can arise from a single person paying all of Shifti's bills, now you, too, can help keep this wonderful resource online. Just click the "Donate" button below and your money will be used to pay bills to keep Shifti going. (It may also be used to cover hardware repairs for the server, too!)
By using PayPal we can provide "complete accountability" for all donations. However, it does come with a downside - there is a transaction fee built-into the system. What that means is that, from a $20 donation Shifti gets $18.92. But don't think you should try to include said fee in your donation - the difference isn't enough to mean much. With the current target it'll come to something like $10, and, with the currently available information, the fee will account for something like $6. With that being the case, if Shifti does, actually, fall short by that amount I (ShadowWolf) will cover the difference out of my own pocket.

As of late in the night of January 4, 2008 our donation drive has met success. In the morning I will be calling the service provider and upgrading Shifti's bandwidth to the maximum available.

Damn! Just transferred the money from PayPal to the bank and PayPal says 3-4 business days. So it'll be a bit more than just "in the morning".
