N.B: You need to accept Javascript and cookied to be able to use this method

By Credit Card via Paypal
After having chosen the amount of points desired (by the bias of the list or by directly entering the desired amount), you acces the Paypal interface. Fill in the different fields and validate. Your points will be credited at the end of the transaction.

Getting Points - Members

Each donation will be automatically transformed into points, which the founder can then use to upgrade the forum.

Points Usage - Founder

Still through the Points Management interface, the Founder can use the points previously acquired. There are currently two modules where the founder can use points: Advertisements and The Gallery.

Advertisements
Two options are proposed:

1. Add time in which advertisements are disabled for members
2. Add time in which advertisements are disabled for members and guests

If the ads have already been disactivated, the expiration date with be with-held the additional time requested.

The Gallery
You can either:

1. Increase your space
2. Add additional time for the pro version

Passing to the pro version allows you to authorise access to your gallery to members and guests and to increase your space to 100Mo. Once in pro version, you can increase further this space under the sole condition your galery stays pro for at least two weeks.

Warning: Extra space is an option that you can use only if you have the pro version. Meaning if you pass back to the free version, the space is lost. However, none of the contents will be lost.

Important

- It is not possible to remove the use of points
- Not to confuse with points in the forums directory (used to estimate your forum's audience)
