Hi guys and gals,
rawpaleoforum.com is up for renewal in 2 days.
Anyone wishes to sponsor?
Only $10 per year.
You can send your donation via paypal to eesc@filipinowebservices.com

GS, why don't you simply put one of those permanent golden boxes where it says "donate to paypal" on both rawpaleodiet.com and rawpaleoforum with an empty box to put one's paypal-info in? That way, people can donate whenever they want in their own time, at $1 or $2 each time - should easily cover all costs re site-maintenance.

$0.00 USD - $3,000.00 USD 2.9% + $0.30 USD
$3,000.01 USD - $10,000.00 USD 2.5% + $0.30 USD
$10,000.01 USD - $100,000.00 USD 2.2% + $0.30 USD
> $100,000.00 USD 1.9% + $0.30 USD
When someone donates a dollar, 2.9 cents + 30 cents will not go to GS, but to paypal as a fee. I don't know whether you knew. Maybe he has a different deal.

I had no idea. But I assume that paypal forces the same fee for sending money via e-mail as well.
Still, the fee is not insurmountable. And $2-$3 dollars every so often from a handful of members would easily be enough to cover all costs, I'd imagine.

Thanks for the donations of ActionHero and DJR I was able to renew rawpaleoforum.com for 2 years!

Re issue of paypal cuts, I don't think they charge for donations.
They do charge me a hefty percentage when I bill my customers through paypal.

In order to get the free of charge donations, you need to establish legally, lawyer involved as far as I know, that you are a charity or a non-profit. I know. We tested a small donation with them within the family, and paypal did take cuts.
But I assume that paypal forces the same fee for sending money via e-mail as well.
I think paypal is always through email. I meant that. Sorry I didn't write it.
