There are several ways you can contribute to AtariAge:
Financial Donations
These help pay for our hosting (AtariAge runs on a dedicated server),
hardware (digital cameras, scanners, development systems, etc), and software
licenses (UBB, development applications, etc.), all of which allow us
to improve AtariAge for your enjoyment. You can donate as little as $1
and as much as you want, and you can pay with your credit card via PayPal.

Magazines
We always welcome donations of old videogame magazines and press releases
for our archives. These serve as reference tools for building our site,
and also provide material for scans and articles. Magazines do not have
to be "collector quality" - they can even be coverless, as long
as the inside is in good condition for us to scan. We have a complete
run of Atari Age magazines, but anything else is welcome. Especially
Electronic Gaming Monthly and anything else with good pictures.
If you have magazines or other materials you would like to donate, please
contact us.
Scans and Pictures
If you would like to contribute files such as instruction manual scans,
label scans, or any other document of importance, you can mail them to
us at editor@atariage.com. Please
do not send anything over 1MB without asking us first. Include your name,
email address and a description of any files you include
as attachments. Also, please read our Copyright
and Terms of Use before sending us anything. Sending us files to the
above address constitutes acceptance of these terms. Any messages larger
than 3MB will be rejected by the server.
To maintain high image quality and consistency on AtariAge,
we prefer that scans and photographs be of sufficiently high resolution.
We prefer to obtain higher-resolution images that we can then crop, shrink
and compress as necessary to display on the site.
If you are sending scans
of cartridge labels, boxes or manuals, please send us scans of at least 150dpi.
This is our minimum preferred resolution, higher resolutions are preferred where
possible.
If these numbers make no sense to you, don't worry,
just send us what you have but please try to use a high resolution.
