But, now let me gripe...ugh!
Will you enable the 'one time donation' option rather than the monthly? I would like to make a bulk donation, but do not want to be tied to the monthly option.
Yeah, yeah...I'm being a little b*tch! I already know...
One time donations can be made to my Paypal account: https://paypal.me/smcneill1973
It may show up as "Darkbring Publishing", but that's just my pen name which I use for selling, publishing, and distributing the books which I write. I started ages ago as a serialized web novelist, and paypal was the means which I used to let my readers donate if they liked my works, and it's worked flawlessly for me ever since. Rather than trying to set up a different account and having to track multiple tax sources and all that, I'd prefer if anyone interested in making a one time donation do so via it -- I promise that any and all donations sent for QB64PE will *ONLY* be used to help pay for our QB64 servers and hosting costs.
So far, this year, we've had a 1 time donation of $100.00, and we currently have one patreon donating $3.00 a month. Our server renewal costs will be upcoming in the next month or so, and I'll post them here for full transparency for everyone to see. With the way inflation has hit everything, I don't have a clue what they're going to be this year, but last year our costs were only around $200 or so, in total. (I'm thinking we'll lose our "new customer" discount this year and that price will probably come in around $300.00 total, but we'll have to wait for the actual bill to see for certain.)
