Official Announcements / Re: How to punish DonationCoder if you are angry at being nagged to donate

Had to follow Alxwz's example and unload those tatty old credits. Makes me hungry for more to give away...now where's that paypal button again?

Seriously, contributing to everyone's effort is a pleasure and a privilege. I won a raffle once, and have used the discounts as well as the s/w from members.

Living Room / Re: Why don't you pay for software?
« on: July 02, 2007, 11:55 PM »
Actually, I don't have any problems paying for software I like and use. Many software authors create programs that become "donationware" because they put so much time and effort into maintaining and improving it. I enjoy donating to my favorite authors and buy their software when they take it shareware (Photofiltre Studio and JV 16 Power Tools, e.g.). Whenever possible, I pay for subscriptions to my favorite newsletters, or at least donate.

As to commercial software, I'm a little conservative. Photoshop CS, Dreamweaver 8, etc., have the flexibility and power I need and I don't mind paying for them. I use XP Pro SP2 on all my machines, and have no interest in Vista. I neither condemn nor support pirated software; if you need/use it, that's your choice.

Hmmm...
OK, I'm going to add my age (62) and Bite-sized trouble's (28) and divide by 2...so, 45! Yeah, that's all right! What really happens is I wind up being every age I've ever been, at least once during each day.  ;D

Ha! This is what I get for being out of the country for so long...a little late in the thread, but here goes.
OK, I took a MSc in Stratigraphy (Geology) about ten years ago, but I've been a professional photographer for 30 of my 40+ working years. Bite-sized trouble has a BA  in Drama ISTR. She graduated from UC Santa Cruz about six years ago.

I hope this comic isn't inappropriate, I think sums up frustration towards trolls quite well.
