Several updates have been made to the classifieds section to make it look and function more like a real interwebs marketplace. Figure if we're going to require forum supporter status to use it, may as well make it a premium service 
While we only require a small amount for direct contribution to become a supporter, I thought another "fun" way to entice becoming a supporter would be to roll it into a classifieds post.
So before today, you had to be a forum supporter to post ANYTHING in the classifieds. Now, you can post as a non-supporter, so long as you select the new "Forum Contribution" option. So let's say your thing you're selling costs $100, you can set $10 of that to be a forum contribution. If it sells, then you're a forum supporter and you still get $90.
OR - supporters and non-supporters both can make "Forum Contribution" classifieds post where any or all of the proceeds go to support the forum.
This is a feature we've been asked about by members many times before, but it took a lot of back-end work to hook things up to work.
