I couldn't keep this a secret for much longer, so I'm going to announce it to the community. Over the last two months, Techno and I have been revising over things to expand Rune Gear and how we should do it. Our first though was to expand Rune Gear to a full blown RuneScape fan site. Meaning, we wouldn't just be a community, but a RuneScape fan site with RuneScape Item Database, quest tutorials, video tutorials and more.

This was something we both wanted to happen in the near future and agreed that this would be one of the major expansions of Rune Gear. So, plans have begun. We've started planning multiple things, such as design, the team etc. We will be hiring approximately 30-40 members to work on Tutorials, Item Databases and more. These members will receive a lot of benefits since the work is voluntarily, their work will not go unrewarded.

The design though is quite expensive. From the funds I've received over the last week, they have been substantial. I've received over $500+ USD. I've invested approximately half the money in resources for Rune Gear.

$150 - VPS (3 Months)
$80 - Advertising
$70 - Miscellaneous

The website design will cost over $750 USD, and we've approximately raised over $250 USD. This goal will be met soon, Rune Gear's traffic is rising, therefore ad prices will rise. We're 1/3 the way there which is something to look forward to. $750 invested into the design ensures that it's quality is of the best and so is its security.

If you would like to donate to this project, please contact me through private messaging, since it's best to track donation through there. RG appreciates all donations and thanks its members. Expect 2011 to be the year for Rune Gear. We will grow to be one of the largest fansites online. This can only be achieved by its members.

If you don't want to/can't donate, then you can still support us by posting and telling your friends about us. The more members we have the larger Rune Gear gets. We benefit from everything that the community provides. Thank you so much.

And before I forget, keep your eye out for special position on the Rune Gear Development Team.

RE: Rune Gear's Massive Expansion

You are doing a great job keeping RuneGear alive.
If you need any designs, hit me up.
I'd like to partner up with someone, if you can find someone with my skill level or higher.
I'd rather not do it alone.
 
RE: Rune Gear's Massive Expansion

I can make tutorials, i'm a good editor and have the video screen capture software already. Pm me if u need me
 
RE: Rune Gear's Massive Expansion

Your wasting so much fucking money on a designer. You can get a awesome designer for $250

But ay, just waste $500+
 
RE: Rune Gear's Massive Expansion

The design looks fine as it is. I don't know why you want to change it.

This isn't all about hiring designers, its upgrading the site with installation of new features. The members which helps out will not go unrewarded. Just to summarize

I'm willing to spend the extra $250 to have a quality design. The webpage is actually $250, but they're going to design extra pages for $50 each which is actually an amazing offer. Don't worry, a majority of this will be going out from my own funds.
