Why should I donate money to Desktop-fun.net? How will my
donation be used?
This isn't going to be a tear-jerking plea for your cash, and
I'm not going to try and convince you that starving programmers
will continue to go hungry if you don't pass some bucks his or her
way. Instead, I'm just going to tell you The Master Plan of how you
can make the world a better place.
I'm a child of capitalism, just like many of you. Truth be told,
it's supply-side economics, which is a conversation for another
time. As good little capitalists, we expect to pay for things, and
we expect to get paid for things. Groovy.
We've taken that model of accepted commerce, and turned it on
it's head (at least in some cases). You decide if something is
worth supporting. The programmer spends time, energy, and often
times very real dollars on making each of these products. Here on
the back side, the costs to do all the tech stuff are greater than
zero. But that's OK. We're not begging. Programmers and graphic
artists alike are doing this to get some nice goodies to spread
around far and wide.
But if you want to donate, you can. We use PayPal to handle all
of our payments, and the bulk of your donation goes to the
programmer.
And if you have issues using PayPal, you can send us your
donation via snail mail:

If you feel like it, give some cash to the staff of
desktop-fun.net to keep our non sponsored software adware,
spyware and malware free!
You can also contribute to our sponsored software if you like, but
there is no need to, since somebody else did finance our work
already.
