I have to agree. Of all (and I do mean all) of the forums I have used and administrated, SMF has been by favorite, by far. Even the default theme, while not the prettiest, is pretty enough, it’s fast, and I can find everything I need. Putting my DBA hat on, I would have liked to have been a bit more intelligent with the DB, but I haven’t seen any forum really do that to the level I would like.
That said, my donation to the MidiBox project is long overdue, so I threw down. I hope people, particularly those who use the forums, wiki, and certainly have built a MidiBox do the same!

Correct although, to be fair, I know I owe Wilba a beer for all his work with the MB-6852 and now sammichSID 🙂

I’ve been pretty much broke for the past year and a half. However, I found something on E-bay I _really_ wanted, but like usual, I was outbid at the last minute. So my small contribution will be the money I would’ve spent frivolously otherwise. I hope it helps.

Everyone who donated THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!..
We reached the goal (+plus a little extra).
Ofcourse you’re free to donate still but you can donate to Wilba, TK or anyone else you respect or you can still donate to me 😛 . Everything will be spend to your benefits not ours.
I fully respect the willingness to chip in a dime (or much more) to help people out even if some can’t spend much.
Anyway much work for me now so i hope i can present you sometihing new soon!

Just made a donation to webhosting, but what is the difference between donating to webhosting vs. donating to development?
Thx for all your work keeping the forum running!
FWIW I’m pretty happy with SMF from a user perspective (I like [midibox.org](http://midibox.org) much better than other forums I use from time to time) but if a change is required then we’ll all learn to live with it.

donating to webhosting covers the costs of running the MIDIbox forum
donating to development buys TK some toys 😉
(I usually bypass the middle-man and send him toys directly)

Donated, before reading the “target reached” post. Keep it for next year’s hosting 🙂

But 2010 is there soon, so I am sure $ will come to good use 😉

Hi Jeffrey
Sorry, I saw this post a bit late but I still would like to donate.
Now with the new style, where is the “donate” link?

)Not sure where to ask about items relating to the message board so I picked this topic)
Is there a way to upload photos to a gallery other than one by one? I have about 12 photos I took of my sammichSID I wanted to upload, but doing it one at a time, while doable, is a bit slow. Just curious!

I had a question also - is it possible to have the forum keep me logged in? Pretty much every time I go to the site I have to go to the login screen and enter my userid and password. It was loads 'o fun the first 100 times, but now it’s getting a little old. It seems like occasionally it remembers me, but maybe the timeout is really short like an hour or something. I have the “remember me” box checked on the login screen but I’m not sure it makes any difference.
Thx,
C

Have you tried checking the “Remember me” checkbox on the login page? Worked wonders for me 🙂

It mostly works 🙂 It depends on what the URL is when hitting the forum I have found. I think it was similar to the [midibox.org](http://midibox.org) forum link problem. I haven’t had any problems logging in for a few weeks now though. If it says I’m not logged in, I just click on the MidiBox image in the top-left and it seems to do the trick.
