People often ask us: "We really love what you're doing here...how can I help you out?" We've always told them, spread the word, get people to subscribe to E-llusions, invite them to our Bulletin Board, bring people into our little family. We've been very gratified by the results.

But some people have said they still want to do more. So, we have two ideas in mind:

We'd really like to put an interactive page on the site where people can post reviews of books that have impacted their lives. We'd like to set this up with a database and a pages in ASP, so that the page will accept user input, display book covers, and link the books to Amazon.com. This last part would be possible if the posts were moderated -- the board administrator would receive the posts first, grab the cover images off of Amazon, and then with a click release the post to the board. We'd also like users to have the option to receive e-mail notifications of new books on the board, and the administrators to have e-mail notifications of all activity. We haven't had the time to do this ourselves yet, so if you're wanting to help and are proficient in ASP coding and meeting set standards, let us know!

For the second idea, there's this question:

Is It Worth
A Measly
Dollar (Or Two) A Year?

Do you enjoy visiting the MoonShadow Visions web site?

Because we sure enjoy having you here!

Since 1996 we've strived to create an advertisement-free online community where people from around the world can gather and share ideas.

MoonShadow Visions is administered by Lance Pierce and John Haynes. It is not a business enterprise; we offer nothing for sale.

This web site is a labor of love. Since its creation we have funded MSV out of our own pockets.

But now we're asking you to consider helping to fund the MSV community.

We figure almost anyone interested in helping could probably afford a single dollar bill.

So that's what we suggest -- if you enjoy visiting this web site and would like to help us maintain and improve it, consider sending just one dollar a year to help fund its continued operation. THIS IS NOT A REQUIREMENT -- IT IS TOTALLY VOLUNTARY. We enjoy your company here whether you choose to donate or not, and beyond our need to thank you, we keep no records of who's sent a contribution. If everyone who visited this site a couple of times a week contributed just one dollar, just once a year, the site would be completely self-sufficient.

So there you have it. If you'd like to help fund MoonShadow Visions, please place your dollar bill in an envelope and mail it to:

MoonShadow Visions
PO Box 18542
Oklahoma City OK 73154-0542

Do you wish to send a check? We are neither a business nor an organization and don't maintain a bank account, so it must be made to either Lance Pierce or John Haynes.
