Dr. Em Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 GALS ~ As all of you know, this site is paid for by the generous donations from our members. It has never been or will ever be a REQUIREMENT for being a member of GALS. We understand there are those who are unable to financially contribute to our site and we certainly understand and appreciate that fact. We also KNOW whether someone is able to contribute financially or not, does not make them any more or any less of a valued member of GALS. Having stated that, we would like to recognize those who have been able to financially contribute to keeping GALS up and running. So, we are making donating to GALS a little easier. If you go into your "My Controls" you will find a "Purchase Paid Subscriptions" link. If you click on that, you will find several options for donating. Now in the Admin. Control Panel, we are unable to change the "duration" to read "one-time contribution" from "Lifetime (never expires)" and we understand that designation is a little misleading. But please understand this is a one-time contribution and you will not receive any reminders to pay again. The other options are monthly, quarterly and yearly subscriptions. Now to be honest with you, I'm not really sure how this will work yet, so bear with us as we figure that part out. I am hoping what this will do is send those who have asked for these type of payments a reminder to pay. I am PRAYING this will not shut any member off! Again, this is a little testing time so if things don't go right, LET US KNOW! We may have to remove that option. When making a payment via the "Purchase Paid Subscription" link, your status will change from "Member" to "Contributing Member" as our way of thanking you for your donation to GALS. When Susan returns from Scotland, I will ask her to manually change that status on the Admin. CP for those who have paid via check. For those who have manually made a payment via Paypal, we are attempting to change those statuses as we speak. We love and appreciate ALL our members and thank you all for always being there when bills need to be paid. Dr. Em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassie Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 For those who have manually made a payment via Paypal, we are attempting to change those statuses as we speak. This was the question I had. I made a payment today before this was posted so I was wondering how I would go about changing mine. I'm sure you techie gals will figure it out. I plan on contributing again in the near future. Cassie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be patient with me, it's a tedious task. Dr. Em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBlonde Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Earlier today I was still listed as a Contributing Member. Now I am back to Member. Do I need to re-subscribe? Donate again? I thought I selected a quarterly or monthly donation. I really liked being green. Thanks KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 OMABO, I've taken your inquiry to the Mod Squad. We'll look into what's going on.

Thanks KB Okay, since this is all new to us, I guess what happened was turning you off...*coughchoke* was your cue that your monthly payment was due (Hey! That rhymed!) because you signed on for the "One Month Recurring Subscription."I have manually turned you on again...(don't say it!)

TheBlonde Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) I have manually turned you on again...(don't say it!) Dr. Em It is a short but distinguished list of women who get to talk to me like that. I know I said I wouldn't say a word...but it was beginning to cause actual physical pain.

That was the pervacious lava screaming and burning from being contained inside of yourself. I'm glad you let it out before you exploded like a volcano! Mount OMABO!! The famous volcano, oddly located somewhere in the state of Texas! Oh, and that's "mount" as a noun, not a verb!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerardable Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I usually like to send my support via check annually. I know I sent in a check this year, but I am still showing as members. Can someone update me also. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Sure thing Gerardable. I'll bring this to Susan's attention and she will check on this, as she receives the contribution payments which are made by check. Thanks!

Mrs C Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I made a payment via Paypal, which cleared my bank, but I didn't get any notifictaion that the payment was recieved, and my status is still the same. I was just wondering if verification of payment is sent out, and if so, did my payment get lost somehow?? If so I will contact Paypal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
