Well, I was going to send out a newsletter today mentioning the ROTJ workprint and Harmy’s future plans for updating the whole trilogy, but we seem to have hit a snag.

When we last sent out an update back in January, we had 1,455 subscribers. MailChimp allows up to 2,000 on a free account but now we have 3,092 subscribers. So, now our choices are either $50/month or a Pay-as-you-Go deal where you purchase credits each time you need to send one out. With our numbers, we’d have to spend $100 for 5,000 credits because each email sent costs 1 credit.

Originally, the newsletter was just for people that wanted to keep tabs on Harmy’s releases without having to visit the forums everyday. I’m not sure what to do here because the true Harmy fans will already know what’s going on in the forums and when new releases will be coming out, so we would be paying to announce information to people who aren’t as involved.

If you think people would like to contribute to keep the newsletter going, I’ll post a Paypal link for it and we’ll see what happens. Otherwise, I’m at a loss as to what to do because I can’t afford to do this on my own…especially for the sake of the occasional visitor.

Let me know what you all think and we’ll proceed from there.

Thanks

P.S. Or if anyone knows an alternative to MailChimp that will meet our growing needs, let me know as well.
