I'd love to know is if there are any Amiga users left in my home town, here in Australia. Sometimes I dress up in rainbow striped socks, skirt and t-shirt, or red & white checkered socks, red and white skirt, top and this goofy red and white checkered hat, but I don't think anyone is associating it with Amiga. I need a t-shirt with that cool Amiga.org logo on it, with the boing ball, the rainbow checkmark, red diamond and the italic A, because there's no way any Amiga user is going to mistake that! I could probably save up enough money for a t-shirt, do you guys have any plans to sell them?

Site ownership information is listed at the bottom of this page.

Sorry Admin but I have to side with Tension on this.

All we have for 'site owner' is DiscreetFX Partners proudly being displayed at the bottom of the page - BIG DEAL! ... I mean for all we know this place could be owned by Mr 'Mil-Spec' Doomy himself. Yet here you are asking for people to pay for membership??? Sorry, not going to happen until the real owner of A.org show themselves.

When they show up here , my membership 'fee' will show up in A.org's paypal account.

Nuff said ... moving on ...

It doesn't take $$$'s to advertise A.org ... simply ask your members and give them advertising materials in the way of clickable links they can add to their adverts or websites. I'm sure there's a GFX artist who can provide you with a few logo's for such use.

Why not run a competition with free years membership to the winning designer???
To err is human ... to BOING divine!

Jens quit as a member of amiga.org over this crap of nobody knowing who owns the site now.  Now you keep on playing games with this "look at the bottom of the page" stuff.  I can kinda see Jens point when he was concerned that somebody bought the site and had access to his private information and he didn't know who this person was.

You caught us it's Doomy after all....  No, an Angel Investor from DiscreetFX Partners was nice enough to help Wayne and preserve a piece of Amiga web history (Amiga.org) for Amiga fans worldwide. His kindness is most appreciated. It was a nice gesture and expensive.

I don't get what all the fuss is over the new owner. Who cares? A guy somewhere spent 10,000 dollars to keep the site up. Whoever you are, thanks dude! I like this website.

If there won't be any t-shirts sold from the site, I wouldn't mind making my own and wearing it, but I'd need to get a high resolution image of the Amiga.org logo. You know what else I think would make a cool item to sell from the site? Drink coasters with the logo on them, or a boing ball on one side and the C= logo on the other, something like that so we can put our tea, coffee, beer or soda on.

Yes, T-shirts sounds like a great idea to me.  Might be a good way to raise a little cash, but even better as prizes.

I like how you think. Always cool ideas.

Hmm, now where is my Amiga Club T-shirt....
