Hi all,
I am running late with the birthday present but it's better late than never.
Digital Comic Museum was 4 years old on the 28th March and this site only exists to provide it's users with free comic books with the goal to get them out to everyone and everywhere. We value every member but personally I think one group of members that go slightly unrewarded are the users who donate money to help support our little project. If it wasn't for them we wouldn't have lasted 4 years. My gift for DCM Birthday is for these users.
So for this month of April every user who donates to the site will be given FTP access as an alternate method to download the files on Digital Comic Museum.
Details are as follows:
For every donation you will be given access to the FTP for a month from the donation date. Due to costs, bandwidth etc download limits will be put in place. For every $1 donated you will be given a download limit of 10GB for that month.
So lets get on to some examples....
* Bob donates $1 to DCM and for 30 days is allowed to download 10GB in total
* Jane donates $25 to DCM and for 30 days is allowed to download 250GB in total
* Barry donates $1 and then $5 at a later date. Barry is given a 10GB limit for his 30 days. When he donates again for $5 his 30 day timer is reset back to 30 days and an extra 50GB is added to his current download count.
How to get set-up:
1. Once you have donated to the site you will receive an e-mail with the FTP details, username and password. This e-mail will arrive within 5 - 10 minutes of sending the donation Note: At the moment this is a manual process on my mind so please allow 24 hours for this e-mail, thou hoping to get most turned around in 1 - 2 hours and this will be automated once everything been tested and sure it fully works.
2. Read the e-mail as this contains all important information you will require.
3. Enter these details into your FTP client and start downloading the files.
Rules / Information / Terms:
* Your donation to DCM is a donation to the site, it is not a payment for FTP access. FTP access is given as a gift to you for helping us out.
* Do not share your account details with anyone else.
* Do not be naughty or abuse the system.
* You must enjoy the comics that come from the FTP.
* This service is provided by Captain DJ and not Digital Comic Museum, any hate or problems please direct at me.
* If you do have any issues please e-mail at: admins@digitalcomicmuseum.com
* There is a user limit on the server currently so please think of others and don't stay logged in 24 / 7.
* Once you use up your download limit you will not be able to connect to site.
* Anyone found to be breaking these rules will have their access revoked.
Feedback:
I know over the last 4 years, users have asked for alternate means of downloading the files. If we get enough feedback and users think it is a good service / alternate method we might consider making it a more permanent feature. So please let us know what you think.
