::...MT mag archive website...::

yeah, nobody really knows. I compensate for your search!

bump....

any other ideas? / offers?

Hosting fees might be an issue, considering how much space you'll be using and how many people will be visiting.
Once the site is set up, I know we'd be interested in running an ad banner on there, so maybe you could cover your costs between donations and selling some ad space...

Heck, if you scan in our old ads, you could just link to our site directly from them!

Also, don't talk to any higher-ups at Source Interlink (the new company that owns MT and the other mags)- they'll just say no right off the bat. Talk to Ernie and/or Mike and let them get you the scoop- they're probably used to dealing with the brass, and might have a better chance of getting the go-ahead.

Better yet, see if they would host the pages on minitruckinweb.com as an archive- then you'd just need to recoup the cost of scanning everything!

Just some ideas for you... but I hope you do it!

^ good advice man! who know what this year will bring! i called an office supply today.... they are sending a rep out to my house to help with a kick ass scanner!

also, what company / old ads are you referring to ???

FBI/ Fender Bender International.
We've been advertising w/ MT since 98 or 99, starting with little black & white ads that were literally cut and paste!
I'm sure other advertisers would be interested in linking their ads, too- it wouldn't take much work to code a link from the image to the company website, and you could either charge per click or just a flat monthly rate.
Of course, I'm sure we'd have some confusion over pricing, since some things have changed over 10 years, but we already deal with that occasionally...

^ lol. i dindt even notice the banner on your signature. duh! i talked to you when you first had an ad in the late 90s. i bought a chrome front end for my toyota! (got any 82-83 toyota chrome parts lying around??? i need some!!! and i need another bumper/valance)

i might be interested in hosting the space for you. when you get seriosu about it loook me up and i will cover the space for hosting the pics.

I would do almost anything to get to see all of the old mini truckin mags!!!

well, i got an email today from a guy that has a few other nice sites and hes offerd some nice ideas / help to get this going. he didnt post on here - he just emailed me directly so ill let him be the one to put his name out there... i left the guy my number so lets hope it goes well!

btw: mazstang - you can come visit this summer and ill let you read em all if you do some chores around the house.
