Donation Website Addition

[Christo]

I know this is a very small post, but I just thought of an idea about the donations to 0 A.D.

What if you made a donation-tracker bar that shows progress of donations onto the site, so whenever somebody donates, it will update the bar!

This is my first post, and it is just a small idea, but I would like comments if this sounds cool!

Hello Christo, welcome to the forums.

The thing is it needs a specific "goal" to work first, as far as I'm aware WFG currently doesn't have any donation campaign, people still donate now and then. A progress bar is needed only when you're trying to raise enough fund in an ammount of time to accomplish some task.

Thanks, Christo!

Progress bars are great when we are conducting a fundraising drive.

It's just that right now we have enough money and we don't need a a fundraising drive.

He does raise a valid point. so far I'm not sure how much money WFG has raised (and spent) for 0ad. if ever I felt like finding out, I would have to dig into someones paypal account or some forum thread or rather.

Not that I would, or care much of it, the game is free after-all, any donations made are voluntary and for the most part the only reward is the game.

However some people get e-peens when they see numbers, and especially money numbers.

WFG already have a finnacial report which they posted now and then for those who want to know the numbers, check the homepage and you should see it.
