O.F.F. has been around for a while now! longer then i even know! one of the best info site for fishing, the best place to meet and talk fish or anything about it.
and it is diffentetly fill with some real good people!

i was just thinking maybe there should be some kind of "swag" we can get to wear well we are out and about!!
by chance i have seen photos of people on here and only seen 1 person for sure on the river that was apart of the forums!

i think it would be awesome if i could go out fishing and see someone supporting the O.F.F. site with a hat/coat/ bumper sticker..ect.... that way if im out by my self and happen to see someone from here, i could talk to them knowing that we may have already talked before...

just a thought, i would by things from the site if we had the option.
O.F.F. swag store!!

all the admin needs to do is use a paypal account--we can preorder -this can happen via email money transfer as well--make a "closing date" once final number of paid is there --order items

Most forums use premium memberships to pay for such items. Along with supporting the people who pay to run the site, it also helps to promote awareness of the forum to get more people to join in and grow the community.

I have joined many car clubs over the years and with a premium membership (usually about $25-40 annually) you get a membership card that gets you discounts to sponsors products as well as stickers for your car and access to a members only section where you can vote for site changes and suggestions as well as set up events.

Haha I was just reading this and thinking, Hasn't this been brought up before? Then I noticed the dates.

I thought it was a great idea then and still do. We could have a members board and like an OFF crew thing or something.

If me and the site owner can work something out I'd be down for it.

What I do as it would be a online store. As the one I have now for my other business. Payment methods are Paypal and all major credit cards. As for stickers a business PayPal account can be setup so you pay though PayPal and stickers get sent out to you.

I'd support this site with a membership for sure. But if the site admin wants to contact me so we can chat by all means contact me.

This is a great idea. A site like kickstarter is a great way to gather funds.

Me and Pwadm have been talking and have some great ideas coming very soon. And will make more money for the site for fees and other things to build it bigger and better. As for the collage that sounds like a good idea. Send me images on here or email me them at service.sldhed@gmail.com Make sure images are big, bigger the better if they are pixelated they will not be used. If you have to use a pixel to inches calculator you want your image to be at least 4"x4" so it shows up nicely on a shirt.
