Just a random thought I felt I should share that may (or may not) help make donations more appealing to keep this glorious site alive. Turn them into advertisements! I think most of us aspiring (or full-fledged) writers want exposure to help further our pursuits.
Using this line of thought: what if when a member donates, there be a scrolling box towards the top of the page near the paid adverts that shows their name. If they donate enough, they get a link to...somewhere (perhaps of their choice), and the amount of money they contribute can be proportional to how long their name shows up in the scrolling contributor box and maybe even how often.
I know that would make donating even more tempting to me. Anybody else have some thoughts on it?
