ANNOUNCEMENT: Donation-page now added to the website!

Post by coyote1980 » Fri Dec 19, 2003 6:32 pm

Hi everyone!

Finally, the Christmas-holidays have begun for me! Two weeks of die-hard programming all the time when I'm not with family ;). No, just kidding, even though I have lots of things to do for school, I will also manage to find lots of spare time, stying in bed till late in the morning and more :lol:

I just wanted to inform everyone that the Donation-page is now ready and online! I have just finished typing it and added it and some links to it to the website. You can find it by using the Donate-link at the top of this page, keep in mind you need to be logged in on the homepage of the club! :D

Lets keep this club up and running together, and who knows what more :D. I hope all the text on that page is clear enough?

I didn't know I had Donated! :lol:

The money I sent was for a Club sticker :D
I'll try to get a bit more in the mail, but have been very short as of late as I have lost my job. :lol:

Oh well

Take care all

heh - I'll post a little cash to you in a few weeks at payday :)

Not sure it's a good idea listing the amounts that are donated, makes the whole thing a bit of a spectacle if you ask me, some readers might start making assumptions based on the amounts, or might make people feel they need to compete in some way, or have to donate more, rather than what they are comfortable with/can afford - what do other think of this (you can tell me to shush you know if you think I'm being daft)

Just my 3.5 eurocents worth

I agree with you Gaz about not displaying the amounts.

On pay-day, you'll get a contribution from me too, but as Gaz said, I think it should be anonymous - you should give what you can afford.

Ben.

Oops & I put my amount up on here and now I can't edit it. Good point about the list.

Coyote, Can you edit my post with the amount?

Edited your post Martin!

@rest: sounds fair, will remove the amounts displayed. What do you think, remove the entire table or just the amounts?

Hows about we have a "total in the coffers" type tally, so we know the total money "we" own...

I'm afraid nochex = no-go... They can only be used by people with a UK creditcard, we have looked at this. Western Union, I don't know, don't think so but will pass it on.
