UncommonCourtesy.org is now live

It's not pretty, but it's decidedly low-bandwidth. Comments are welcome.

Now here is a random-donation idea that has merit :-)

$20 into the pot!

Thank you sir. :)

How's the site look?

[knome.livejournal.com]

Simple, to the point. :)

It would be nice to have some imagery tho, perhaps a link list to other causes that you personally support, or related "guerilla giving".

[wsmith.livejournal.com]

I like the "Guerilla" idea. I think I'll call the concept guerilla philanthropy. I could make a link list. Do you really think that's something people will appreciate?

I'd love to include some images and whatnot, but the problem is that I need to keep bandwidth use to a relative minimum. I'd far rather give the money to the people it's for then to a hosting company for more transfer.

It's really hard for me to read the blue link text at the bottom.
Any support for anonymous donations?

[wsmith.livejournal.com]

I changed the blue links to green. I'm still trying to figure out how to do an anonymous donation button. So far, no dice.

Thanks for the input. Content-wise, how do you feel about it? Do you think the tone is right?

[silentq.livejournal.com]

The tone seemed confrontational in a couple of places, rather than professional. These lines in the FAQ specifically:
This is all assuming you people like the idea enough to donate.
So it’s ugly? So what? You got a problem with that?

[wsmith.livejournal.com]

The ugly web page thing was really just there for cheap laughs. I suppose I can make it even more obvious. "So it's ugly? So what? You got a problem with that? You talkin' to me? You must be talkin' to me..." and so on.

I'll take a look at the other and reword it. This is why people need editors. :)
