Topic: Donation News

In this thread i will keep you posted on donations.

Essentially I am trying to re-kindle S-T-D as a proper project with good resources. To do this we need funds. We do not require funds but things cost money and to date all these things i have been paying for out my own pocket.

However we are now trying to step the project up a gear so any donations are welcome.

First on the list is a deciated server for the s-t-d.org domain.

With a dedicated server we can do so much more than we can this now. We can also remove most of the website problems weve been facing.

As a sign of good faith if i can get enough donations to cover setup and the first 3 months of rental i will cover the rest (and hopefully get it back before the year is out).

Re: Donation News

I have had a few e-mails about how people can donate without using paypal.

This is always a really tricky quesiton for a global project spanning interested users from almost every continent.

Paypal is the largest and easiest way to collect donations from the most number of countries in one go.

If i upgrade the paypal account it can also be used to accept donations from non paypal members by using their credit card.

I hear that google is doing a paypal like thing so as with all things google i expect big things from it and it may help with this problem.

Apart from this we have no other means of accepting donations.

We are open to suggestons but its unlikely we will be signing up to several of these online money services as that takes alot of time and based on the current donation level (i.e. zero) i cant see it actually helping.

All suggestions on a postcard somehwhereni the forum please smile
