wants to know if you can tell the difference between weaker and stronger magnets with 3mm aircraft.Now it's time to process some payments from advertisers. For instance, Hetzerdog is one of our newer advertisers, and this is their first payment. (It's always a good sign when the new advertisers pay their bill!)
While I'm at it, I also upgrade the Hetzerdog member account to Supporting status. (Since the advertisers are already paying to support TMP, I told them I'd give them free member account upgrades.)
PayPal also reports that there's been a payment from Victory Force, so I credit them and generate a receipt. Victory Force has been very innovative in their use of banner advertising, varying what they're running (and how often) depending on their most recent products.
Also in the "paid" pile is The Virtual Alchemist, one of the original advertisers at TMP. It was good for those pioneers to support the website back in early 2000, and it's grand to know most of them are still with us!
Another advertiser writes to confirm payment arrangements (this case involves an investor, so I've done a little paperwork to detail the cost of their proposed advertising plan). In this case, everything looks like it will work out fine.
I also hear from BattleGroup Boston - their Havoc convention is coming around again, so they want me to reactivate their advertising account. (Done.) I used to work in Boston, but had a crazy job and never had time to get out to the convention. Maybe I can drive over there this year...
