I certainly appreciate Matthew with this great Volvo site w/forum and plan to do as much as I possibly can in supporting him as I know that it gets quite expensive to host it.
Just wondering and a question/suggestion to Matt-
If there was a possible way to distinguish between regular members and those who have/are supporting you in one of the three ways you have asked for help, I think it would be very benificial....sort of like what VolvoSpeed does by adding a badge of "supporting member" to the person's name in a post. Just a thought, but would this even be possible on this site with the software that it uses? Also, Is this something you would even want to do?
I'm thinking that if there was a way to recognize those who financially support you, you would get more support.

ah, thanks MIJ. i did miss it.
that's a good idea. i think the forum software has a rank system built-in. i'll look into activating it.
as for Amazon purchases, i can only see products that were bought and the date, nothing more. so the way that would work would be for the purchaser to contact me, then i could add them to the Donator rank.
links -- same thing.
thanks for this post, these things are not always apparent to me.

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.
Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
