Default What happened to Pontiac Journal (or other subscriptions to help fund the site)?

I didn't find the content in the short-lived Pontiac Journal particularly useful to the projects I had going on at the time, but I gladly subscribed to help support the site.

When I saw b-man's posts this morning, I contributed again because I find the forums useful and often recommend them to people just getting into a Pontiac project.

I'm curious if there's any plan to bring back some sort of subscription or recurring fund drive to help keep things running smoothly around here?

I've found having access to the online parts database is a useful part of the subscription - I refer to it often.

Mike,

First, really appreciate your support and thank you for the donation. We haven't updated or released a 'Pontiac Journal' in years. Just hard to keep up with with minimal manpower and help.

We just started our request that everyone should see in the Announcements section. That will hopefully help us keep going as is. Our advertising sponsors help a lot too, so if you know anyone looking to get their name out there, have them contact me! Always check them out first before heading elsewhere.

Thanks, Stuart! I just went back in and looked and realized I can still subscribe. When the journals stopped and I stopped getting billed, I thought the entire program had gone away. I'll have to re-up.
