NPF is one of the oldest Pink Floyd websites on the internet and has been around since around 1999. The site today costs a fair amount to run and is not supported by advertising or subscription. It is provided as a labor of love – both of the band and its rich history, but also for bringing people together!
You can support the site in lots of ways:
- Share your photos – get in touch about having your photos featured on the site
- Community – be a member of our forum and enjoy our friendly discussions
- Shop – use our Amazon links [UK and International] so we earn a small commission from Amazon. This doesn’t cost you any extra when you shop, Amazon just pay us a small percentage of your order
