One of the perks of being in Cody's Club is if you ever find yourself out on the street with not a penny in your pocket, you may request a loan from any (non-captive) flying bird you see.  Just stick out your hand at arm's length, face up, and approach the bird slowly.  If bird flies away and refuses to give you a loan, please report him to the authorities for violating his obligations.

Note: You may need to present your signed DonationCoder.com membership card to the bird (and the authorities if you are reporting the bird).

I received the kit a couple of years ago. I wonder where all the stickers went that I did not put on my laptop... I'll have to put the badge on a few of my hoodies though, that'll lighten them up (they are basic hacker apparel: black).

Ok...so I tried it...and he gave me...well...something anyway. Put it right in my hand he did. :o

I don't know if it's a loan or not though. :huh:

If I gave something similar to somebody else, I don't think I'd want it back. :-\

Hey mouseman,

i just want to give you a thumbs up. You know, while i'm a nearly daily IRC member of the DC channel i'm not a everyday forum reader. But i read your event updates EVERYDAY.

So to answer your question. YES, at least i - and i'm sure hundred others, read your daily update posts.

And thanks also to all of those fundraiser participants that write that apps, reviews, stories, hints, political speeches ... HUH???? errrrr...cancel that last one please. :) Good work, please go on.

Greetings
JoTo

PS:
Maybe this was a test, but i noticed that the post for 14th is missing! GOTCHA and proofed that i read them. :)

I was googling and found this website, actually I was looking for a free screencapture software, a few weeks ago I just got a paypal account, so I decide to donate as a way to say "Thank you".

A friend recommended "The Form Letter Machine" to me many moons ago. I downloaded it and tried to work with it. Found the learning curve with it a bit time consuming and did not pursue it at the time. I do want to use it and just have to take the time to learn it.

As for Donation Coder, I think it is a great effort that seems to work well for the more eager crowd. Once I will have some more time available I will do more exploring of the site and its offerings.

First, congratulations on six years! I've been using Screenshot Captor for a really long time and other software from Donation Coder for even longer that. Only now am I able to donate and I'm happy to.

Thanks for amazing software. Have a good one.

Does anybody know of any other site, organization, or cause that scores double their goal during a fundraiser?

I think that's pretty unique. :Thmbsup:

Though I have not had lots of time to spend here I have been around since the beginning and can say it is a great site.  Your drive came at a good moment when I was able to donate.  May the site continue on for a long time to come...

Leland
:D
