Why be a sponsor?
Sponsors are the reason why I can continue to maintain the clear sky charts. I try to thank sponsors by giving sponsored charts more updates, more forecasts, better reliability and more features. I also recognize sponsors on these pages. The complete details of what I do for sponsorship is long, but it is here. One person sponsoring a chart makes those benefits visible to everone.What does sponsorship pay for?
More importantly, sponsorship does not pay for the basic data from which I generate the charts. That data is offered to everyone for free by the Canadian Meteorological Centre though their public web page.Sponsorship does reduce some of the costs of internet access, web hosting, computers, software development, caffeine and ibuprofen incurred by running the clear sky charts.
How to be a sponsor.
No amount is too small. I list sponsors for a month per us$5.00 of sponsorship. (I ask more from commercial sponsors and do more for commercial sponsors. Email me for details.)There are two ways to sponsor:
- Mail me a check. Please do not use the address printed in the February 2004 issue of Sky & Telescope page 69; it is wrong even with Stuart's correction. Instead, please Email
me for the correct snail mail address.
US dollar and personal checks are fine. Note that postage to me from the USA is us$1.15 and from Canada is can$0.85.
A check gets the greatest amount of your sponsorship to me but is slow.
- Or click on a button below to send money from your Paypal account or credit card.
Non-Canadians please use: US Dollars
Canadians Please use: Canadian Dollars
- what name you'd like credited on this page. I can also link your web page, if you like.
- The names of any clear sky chart pages you'd like your sponsorship to be acknowledged on.
How much does it cost?
There is no minimum sponsorship amount. I am greatful for any support. Also, I do not repeatedly dun past sponsors for more money. I may email a sponsor once at the end of their sponsorship.But to be fair to all sponsors, I acknowledge sponsors on this page, and on chart pages they've chosen to support, for a time proprotional to their sponsorship.
