Hey everyone!
I wanted to start a conversation about TamaTalk. There have been LOADS of suggestions for updates to TamaTalk for things like a mobile version of the site, app version of the site, profile page messaging, better photo gallery, better chat, status updates and more like that over the years. The problem is right now we are running on old software. I've seriously been considering these features but they just aren't possible in the old software. The fix? Upgrade the software. I looked at the latest and greatest version of Invision Power Board and it provides all of these features and looks REALLY cool. The problem is this costs a decent chunk of change to purchase. I figure it would cost $224 for the forum, gallery and chat. I find it hard to move forward making that purchase because money is already tight aas it is but also because I am not sure everyone here even wants it. So I am starting this topic to put the question out there... Would you all find this an interesting upgrade? Also, would people be interested in maybe doing a fundraiser type thing where we all help pitch in some money towards the cost (in other words would these new features and upgrade be good enough for you to consider helping to pay for)?
I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this.
