... @ Mika: I too saw the Mochi being a little bit odd, but I thought it was my imagination playing tricks on me ... it does that from time to time ... >.< ...

... @ Firn: Mochi looks so cute!!! ... anyways, the being able to equip gen lab stuff is an awesome idea ... me luffles it!!! ...

... @ Mouse: I recall Firn saying the donation items would be sporadically released, then again I might have heard wrong ... ^.^ ...

::looks at the angel items and whistles:: Nice. Sorry I haven't commented on it before. I usually, ah, pass the Art forum by since I'm often doing several things at once when I'm online. If you get all that for only $2-$2.50, then I'll be sure to donate. Given my fondness for word games, I probably could earn it by food points easily enough, but hey... I'd love to support you. :qcute:

Ditto. I think it's a good idea too.

Mouse: I think with posting being the only way to earn food 90,000 would be rather impossible. I was thinking about 10,000, but then again it might be too easy for some people. I CAN really make 1000 within a day easily and there are people who spam like this. I am such a failure at prizing items. Starkad says I made the Summer Booth items way too cheap.

I am not sure whether this will be a "monthly" thing. It's just an experiment for now. If people like the idea we might release a different set the next month.

Michichis:
What do you mean by "odd" ? ;_; I think it looks better now.

Ambrienne: Yes, I thought the whole set for 2.5 sounded reasonable.

Trying to get 10,000 food points sounds a lot harder to me than donating 2.5 bucks. I mean, minimum wage here is like... $7 an hour? 10,000 food points would take me quite a few hours. XD So it sounds like a pretty good prize to me.

This is why I wish I could use paypal. :qstr: I would gladly donate.

There was something else I noticed... A majority of the users here seem to be under 18. If they live in the US, which a lot of them seem to, it's not really legal to use paypal. Too bad there's not some other method.

Most people on Gaia are also under 18 and they still manage somehow.

I don't want to put too much thoughts into this.
The set is meant as a Thank you to people who donate, and thinking about problems like this makes me feel as if I was trying to work out some business strategy or something like this.

@homi ---Paypal allows the use of under 18, I use it on Gaia *is 16* and I didn't lie to the system... and I don't mean to disagree but a lot of the people here are 18+ that I've seen...

Yeah, there was something that I remember, but there was this website where you could just put in the code and it'd show up... I want to say it was W3 php tutorial... and there was a link that would show you what said code would do when you put it in, but you can also put your own code in xD...


@Firn --- Um, I was just wondering if the set would come in all 9pieces, or not... so I was wondering if I'd have to save up 10,000fps for the whole set, or 90,000fps... I think 10,000fps is good, I've only come across 15,000fps since I've been here, well around that anyway...[/color]

Sorry Firn. I didn't mean to make you feel bad. I think the angel stuff looks great and it's definitely appreciated.

Mouse, do you use your own account on paypal or your parents?

I looked it up in their user policy and actually it really says that people from the United States must be 18 or older. I just don't think they really check it.
