Hey, hey, money? Did I hear someone say money? I like the sound of that!

With the recent milestone of 7,000 registered users (registered being the operative word not necessarily active), Armorama seems to be hitting milestone after milestone. Would it be safe to say that we are the fastest growing modelling site on the web?

Congradulations to everyone for their contribution, from the newest member with a single posts, to the staff and especially to Jim for everyone's valuable time spent making Armorama what it is: a go to community for modellers across the world. Everyone should be proud of themselves and their modelling peers.

Just to put the number in perspective 1 trillion seconds ago it was 43995 BC. WOW well done, Jim.

Okay... hehe

I am no math wiz.... while re-reading this I realized it is in the BILLION not trillion range. However it's still an impressive number. In fact I did a search on the Analog web style stats that this is generated from. It's a rather standard page that many sites use. I could not find one site that even came close. Most were in the thousands and a few millions. No billions.

Cheers,
Jim

Great (mind-warping) news to end the day with. After this morning's thread, I then went to a Funeral. Came home subdued to say the least...

If only to have a fraction of a penny per hit...

Impressive!! Damned impressive! But at the same time I am not shocked. This site is quite simply the #1 class act site I have ever been to!

From the many years (going way back to GEnie days) I have been online I have never seen a community as helpful, civil and decent, or a site as solid and useful as Armorama!

Jim & Co. you guys have created something very special!

Congrats!

Jim
