Sythe.org Donations Center Preview

[Rsaccounttrader]

I love the new layout and features. However, I think the best way to accept donations would be to accept Google Checkout or another such service. If people can pay directly with a credit card, they are much more likely to donate.

Also, will $300 donators be able to customize their ranks through the system?

I have a minor suggestion. A $300 donor rank that is default maybe would be handy for people who donated that much or more who don't know what to put yet for the custom.

Ideally. I'm still working on that but I want staff to be able to do user title and username image requests in the same system.

Does that mean we'll be able to apply Username Images on our own now?

 

Wonderful. Looking forward to it.

Great work man! Can't wait.

Again, accepting other donation services is not the point of this upgrade. Accepting methods like Google Checkout, PayPal, and so on come with a variety of implications which we have not yet been able to solve. When we do, we will offer those methods. Look at it this way: We want to make money. Accepting new methods makes us more money. Don't you think we would if we could?

Also, AWESOME point. I'll have to built custom ranks into the approval system, thanks for bringing that up!

That's a good idea too, thanks!

Uh. I'm not sure yet. I haven't decided if I'm going to allow all admins access to the approval queue yet. The approval queue is still a work in progress.

Very impressive Matthew. Good to hear donation is getting a complete makeover. So that's what you have been doing.
Thank you!

 

I'm looking forward to the new donation center. Thanks for doing this Matthew.

Wow it looks great! If $100 donators want a UT with html will we be able to submit it for request through the new system too or if we wanted html/colors would we still have to request it through the current thread?

Nice work Matthew.

 

[Busta305]

Nice would speed up the process a lot and more organized. Also you should add 1000 pms for $100+ donors while you're at it .

You can request a title with HTML. The system will tell you what you're allowed to have based on your donation level. If you don't follow the guidelines, expect to have your request denied.

Sounds great, really looking forward to it. Looks like you've put a lot of work into this.

When will this go live?

Does this mean we will be able to change our actual Sythe name too something completely different?

Only $300+ donators and staff can have name changes, and it's in extremely rare cases that they're something major. Something like this has to be dealt with an administator, this won't ever be automatic.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, appreciate it.

Looking good Matthew.

 

[Phanz]

This looks awesome, I can't wait for it.
Planning on donating soon. :]

 

[DMR]

Oh wow, that looks so nice. I wish everywhere on Sythe was in the same template. I'd love this place even more. I'll be looking forward to donating, before that, I'll need to decide on which out of the two donation rank I should get.

 

[FibOfAllFibs]

Great job Matthew! It looks a lot more polished than it did before!

Still wishing I could get a legacy rank though
