I’d like to thank everyone who donated - the server has been upgraded, and hopefully, it’s noticeably faster now!

Hi Dan, Yes, it does seem quite a bit faster for me when I search. Looks like the upgrade was definitely effective!

Peeron currently gets over 350,000 visitors each month and another 100,000 to LDraw.org. This is more than three times the traffic we had when we switched to this server 2 years ago. Hopefully with this upgrade we’ll be able to continue this growth!

To donate, please visit http://www.peeron.com/inv/donation_drive.

According to the donation page, it looks like you’ve already hit your goal! That’s pretty impressive, considering that the percentage chart was only at 2% when I donated a couple of days ago.

From what I’ve seen the goal has been reached in less than 24 hours...and probably, that’s my personal guess, in a very few hours.

That’s, IMO, not surprising, because the initial amount of 400$ is pretty low and because both Dan as a person & Peeron as a service are so much appreciated.

Don’t forget : To support Peeron, you also have to submit inventories (one thing I’m not used to do :-( )
