The GMC Motorhome Photo Archive is having its 7th birthday!

It's hard to believe that it has been online for 7 years now. In a way, it seems like a lifetime. On the other hand, it seems like only yesterday that we were diligently posting our GMC photos to first one online service, then another, only to lose them when they shut down or held us up for exorbitant amounts of cash or flooded us with advertisements that we had no interest in seeing.

At the GMC Motorhome Photo Archive, all of our GMC photos are still available for everyone to see. Not a single one has ever been lost. And everyone knows where to find them with just a few key search words.

The GMC Motorhome Photo Archive is exclusively for the advancement of our GMC Motorhomes. It is free and continuously available. No other enthusiast group, anywhere that I know of, has this caliber of presentation tool available to them. It is just one more reason why our machines are the most sought after motorhomes in the world.

==============================
As of 11/28/2009 the site contained
23,772 photos in
over 1927 albums by
over 863 registered users.

It requires more than 4 gigabytes of online storage space and
at least a 13mb database that grows daily.

The site averages 210,000 hits per month by 4900 unique visitors using around 22 Gigabytes of bandwidth.

(http://gmcmhphotos.com/photos/Stats_2009-11-20.pdf)
==============================

Not a red cent has ever been demanded for this service. It is provided FREE of charge for its intended purpose and everyone is encouraged to use it to its full benefit. User donations have supported the site adequately in the past as I am sure they will continue to do so in the future.

Today, on its 7th birthday, please take a moment to make your yearly $10 or $20 donation for its support. Any amount will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your consideration and support. With your help, we will cause these GMCs to be in even more demand in the future. They will be the envy of RVers for generations to come.

=========
For those of you who have donated throughout the year, thank you, and please consider yourselves exempt from this annual solicitation.

If you need to know when the last time you donated was, just ask, as I do have that information available.
=========

Use the GMC Motorhome Photo Archive to:
store GMC related photos
show a problem in order to solicit ideas for repair
post photos of your GMC For Sale
search for photos of a particular problem you're having
share how you accomplished that tricky repair with others
show off that new paint job
post photos of a recent GMC Motorhome Club Rally or Event
offer GMC items for sale or trade
warn others of potential problems and show how to avoid them
learn from everyone else's experiences

The GMC Motorhome Photo Archive is a major part of the support network (www.bdub.net/GMCLinks.html) that exists for GMC Motorhome owners. No other motorhome, or any other RV for that matter, has the kind of service, support, and parts supply network that is available to GMC owners.

Of course, you're welcome, Larry. I'm glad that it's found to be useful. It'll
be around just as long as I can keep paying the bills.

Thanks for sharing your mechanical genius with us all.

Hi Rob

They're both the same. PayPal takes .30 + 2.9% which means they keep .88 of
every $20 donation from within the U.S. From outside the U.S., they keep 3.9%
which increases their take to $1.08.

It's comparable to me furnishing the envelope and stamp rather than you. Only
it's lots more convenient for both of us.

hth and THANKS for all your support.
