EVOLVE

So as you’ve probably noticed by now, I’ve added Google AdSense to the blog. I figured that not everyone can make a monetary donation so this was a good alternative. It should only display 3 ads per page so it won’t get too cluttered and I opted for the smaller 468×60 ads. If you’d like to “help the cause”, and every bit helps, please just click an ad here and there and it’ll filter its way through to me. I’ve also added a link under each title of each post called “Show Some Love” which is a direct link to the PayPal donation page. Again, none of this is required but I really do appreciate it and it’s a good way to give back for all the hard work that goes into maintaining this blog.

I went ahead and added a Donors page for the donations that were made to the site recently. I’d like to thank my first two donors, Rick Talavera and Jack Doyle, for helping the cause. It is greatly appreciated. You will notice that once you donate you get a nice little link to your site on the page. Not a huge deal but maybe it can drive some traffic back your way as a token of my appreciation. Thanks guys!

You’ve probably noticed by now that I added a new FeedBurner feed to the sidebar along with an add to Technorati favorites link. I also added a PayPal donation button. Let me explain here: The site, obviously, doesn’t require you to send me anything. I enjoy posting up source and seeing people get better. There are some people in this world who do appreciate hard work and are nice enough to offer a donation. If you want to throw some money my way for the work being done here or if you’re using the classes/source I post on projects, that is GREATLY appreciated. It always helps to have extra income come in when you don’t expect it and I am very thankful for that.

For those that do donate, I will make a Donors page with your name and website so that people can meet the wonderful users that help drive this site. Thanks for anyone who does and keep on visiting the site for new stuff.
