Would you pay to have a website built, run and updated for your party or campaign that includes forums, group chat, npc pics and weekly updates?

I suspect this would work for games run over the 'net and not in person.

But, for my campaign:

I doubt I'd pay for it, outside of bribing my friends with dinner or something. Most of them are codemonkeys, three of them are artists, and outside of hosting and building the page, I'd feel comfortable providing the content with fiction, storyhour(s), writeups of NPCs, history of various objects, persons, or places in the game(s).
 

A definite no.

I don't consider myself a codemonkey by any means, but it wasn't hard to build a linux server, install some content management software, and customize it for my needs. I use it for all of my campaigns and games, as well as making it available for others in my gaming group to use likewise.

With the level of customization available these days in the free software packages and the relative ease with which you can install and use them, I don't see any real reason to pay someone to do this for me.
 

Naw... we already have a nice one built from the phpBB freeware. And one of our players is hosting.

I'm sure we could use someone with the expertise to make it look snazzy beyond just a BB though. I think showing a sample of your work/what specifics you are offering would sell the point better.

I know we could use spoiler tags and blockers. And a BB diceroller.
 

I would not pay for this, since I do it myself good enough (see my sig below ;) ). Now, lets suppose I don't know anything about webdesign. I would create a PDF or two of the campaign and would need at least one webpage with some text, pics, and the PDFs for download. I would first ask around if a friend could help me in this endeavour, and if not I could pay up to 20$ once, and then have it put on my webserver space. I wouldn't bother with updates.
