Hi Gang,
For this month of May 2015 every user who donates will be given FTP access as an alternate method to download files from the Digital Comic Museum.
For each dollar donated they will receive 5 gigs of file downloads over the next 31 days from the day the donation was made.Click on the
Donate link here to contribute to the cause and receive your FTP login info in an email. Please be sure your DCM profile email address is working first if you aren't using an active address.
It's been just over a year since we had our first FTP Access Month. This was run as part of the 4th Anniversary event and was a remarkable success. Donors to the site are vital for keeping our server bill covered. The first FTP drive helped build a reserve fund for those months we come up short in our monthly goal of
$288.
DCM is a built on four pillars. The physical comics and those that buy and share them, the scanners/editors of those comics working many hours to share their scans, the staff working hard behind the scenes and the financial donors who give their money to keep our servers running. Those financial donors don't get nearly the recognition that the other groups do but are easily as vital to keeping DCM a healthy site! As a thank-you to donors this month we are offering our second FTP Access month!
++++++++++++
To quote CaptDJ from last year here are the specifics -
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 during May you will be given a download limit of 5 GB for the following 31 days.
So lets get on to some examples....
* Bob donates $1 to DCM and for the next 31 days is allowed to download 5GB in total.
* Jane donates $10 to DCM and for the next 31 days is allowed to download 50GB in total
* Barry donates $1 and then $5 at a later date. Barry is given a 5GB limit for 31 days. When he donates again for $5
his 31 day timer is reset back to 31 days and an extra 25GB 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 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 we are sure it fully works. 2. Read the e-mail as this contains all the important information you will require.
3. Enter these details into your FTP client and start downloading the files.
