Greetings Skunks,
In order to facilitate the growth of our server funds, i will offer my services as a photographer this weekend to anyone who is willing to pay 15K to get their shoot done for a model portfolio. The proceeds will go to get a spanking brand new high spec server.
I'm not going to get back into the bureaucracy of trying to register skunkworks and get shirts, pens, mugs printed. instead i'll shoot for the fundraising.
So. If you know anyone who wants to get this done, let me knw and i'll arrange it. my limit for the weekend is 30 people.
I am going to be hiring a hall for the shoot so will only be able to contribute 10K per person to the server. Making it clear from the start so that there is no formal inquiry in the future or tribunal to query the funds.
Lemme know.

Good thot Rahim, I think thats the way we should have gone right from the start. Put up notices abt fund raising for skunk server where skunks offer their services and the proceeds go towards buying the server. I was imagining something like a day when the public is informed of a venuw they can get their gadgets checked for a certain community flat fee, on that day number to be availed where if you cannot come over you call and a skunk with that expertese is dispatched to sort you for again a flat fee, consultations are welcome for again a flat fee. etc etc etc. I think this would raise millions, if well co-ordinated and publicised. -- Conservatism is the adherence to the old tried against the new untried.
