How can I help TCP?

[Blumpkin]

TCP has become an awesome resource in showcasing my game collection. It's the only place I know of that provides covers for free. What I wanted to know is if there is any way I can help support the site? Is there a way to donate to support the fees that TCP incurs? I just want to help ensure that TCP will be around for a long time to come.

All scans are provided by individual members, as is the artist work, so donating money for the site is not needed (or even possible).
There is always a risk that if you donate to individual artists or box buyers they start to want more, thus gribling our sites idea.

But if you want to help, buy games and scan them, or learn how to use Photoshop or other programs and make covers, or give us heads up if you find cheap CIB games that the people can buy.

But if you really want to give money you can always PayPal me some so I can get more expansive rare games... (semi joke).

I've already bought some games from people who post for-sale lists up here.  I think that's a good way to contribute -- rather than ebaying for some games.  I'm still fairly new, but I think TCP is a cool little community of gamer/collectors.

Really, invest in a scanner. As you collect, it's inevitable that someone is going to request something you have. A scanner is really the only way to help support the cover project.

Send me a check

I have no skills.    That's why I was asking. I could at least make a donation to support web hosting.

Then purchase a scanner and alot of CIB or Boxed games.

You can allways send me a blank check, made out to "cash" muahhahaha. (I need a new scanner...been looking at the hand ones, if they work well, it'd be a lot better than a large unit)
