whatever123 said: peyote is such a cute cactus...am I the only one who thinks this? Every time I hear people mention peyote, they talk about mescaline and stuff, but I think it is just as cute as a button(sorry...had to say it)! But yea, It is an awesome looking little dude. Sorry for derailing the topic....just ignore this.
Not to further derail, but yeah, its probably one the nicest looking cacti, and it has a background that makes it not only aesthetically pleasing, but also has a huge interesting/coolness factor.

Things are going smoothly, I have a PO Box in Canada and llamabox will have his tomorrow. llamabox is also discussing with someone in the UK and perhaps there will be a storehouse there too.
If people order seeds themselves they can do so to one of the Ethno Ring addressed. Donations will still be helpful to cover costs of PO box's, and if we get our own, a domain too (Shdwstr, I believe llamabox is talking to you about hosting on FSRC). Again, if you want to throw a few buck our way that's entirely your call. You can send it by mail, and I'm considering setting up a paypal account to later have on the site. We also may have t-shirts and other logo-oriented objects for sale on the site in the future, we'll see if we can come up with some cool ideas.
I hope to have a test page up for the site tonight, but the complete site will take a few more days. In the meantime, here's a banner I made: http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/1539/banner3hs.gif and also boarder I did for the site: http://img110.imageshack.us/img110/3112/leafborder1md.gif
You can already send seeds or donations to the Canadian storehouse, which I'm housing:
Ethno Ring PO box 52527 1136-2929 Barnet Hwy Coquitlam, BC V3B 7J4 Canada
I'll make the official commencement post when I have llamabox's PO address tomorrow.

Cool, Jaeger 
I made a demo picture for a site concept: http://img112.imageshack.us/img112/8444/demopage8ty.jpg
with java for page transitions and other stuff it should be pretty sweet!

....i fucking love you guys, so much.
Yea, it would be awesome to have that U.S. storehouse adress set up soon, so I can snag some seeds! DEFINATELY going to donate, and it would be cool to have some merchandise and all, but it would probably be best to spend any "extra" money on hosting the site or whatever expenses arise...I still can't believe this! You guys are awesome!

O.K, I'm not sure how this works, but I've had 3 pretty good sized T. Pachanoi, two of which I just harvested about three months ago, thus several young cuttings (top and bottoms), if you guy's need a couple can someone PM me, cuz I'm confuzed on how this thread works.

Here is a brief rundown of how this has worked so far. Each cutting contribution you make gives you one cutting credit. This credit may be used to receive a cutting of your choice whenever you see one on the site you want. Once you have contributed 3 times you will no longer be bound by the credit rule, and you can get cuttings whenever you want.
If you have cuttings ready to go, you can send them to me here at the US storehouse. Otherwise the system will work by you notifying us that you have cuttings for donation, then they will be listed as available on the website with your email (or if you do not want it to be shown they can contact one of the storehouses), and when someone wants one they will send the shipping money directly to you, and you will send the plant directly to them. Once they receive the cutting you will be given a credit.
