Subscription Enhancement - Board Sponsorship

[jilly]

I would like to see add-ons to the subscription system. Specifically, I would like the ability for a member to choose to 'sponsor' a forum for a specified time period - week, month, 3 months, year, etc.
They would choose the forum they wanted to sponsor by a drop down box or whatever in the subscriptions area, and the time period they want to 'sponsor' it for.

I would also like them to be able to designate who it is sponsored for and why, when they do the subscription.

Then, their name and avatar and sponsor person/reason would automatically appear at the header area of the forum they chose to sponsor.

For example, if you had a forum on cancer support, and one of the boards was called 'early detection', then the member Jane Smith could decide to 'sponsor' that board for a month, for the donation of $XX

She would enter the info in the subscriptions area and then on the header area of the early detection board, you would see:

"This board is sponsored for the month of February by Jane Smith, in memory of her Mother, Betty Lou Smith."

When the subscription is over it would automatically go away.

Great idea. Are there any hacks like this?
