Donate JavaCPC

[Devilmarkus]

Hi together,
as you know, I want to release next JavaCPC as soon as possible.

I am making good progress so I think the release can run in February.

For the next release I have a question to you all:
- I want to include some "commercial" styles.
- A license would cost me about 175€ (without further support)

The new styles look really awesome!
Example: http://devilmarkus.de/BlackEye_theme.png

So my question:
Who wants to donate this feature?
- I can pay about 20€ for it.
- Every donator will be listed in a "Thank you list" in credits

So, if you like, please donate this and I can offer you some more cool styles.

More informations about these styles you can find here:

Cheers,
Markus

Ouch! My eyes! If that background cannot be changed then I'm taking your money, too.

Otherwise, sure! It's quite expensive, eh?

I need a 3rd vote option:
"I see no reason for these styles, so I'm out. But if JavaCPC ever runs fast and smooth on Linux, then I'll definitely donate"

[Gryzor]

Well, the thing is that he's not asking for a donation in order to develop the app - he's doing that for free! He's just asking us to chip in so he can buy a license for the gfx style, so I don't see how your option could go up there...

@ Gryzor: sure, you can setup your own wallpaper. 

@ mr_lou: Sadly it doesnt run well on Linux. There is a simple reason for it:
The Linux Java-distribution has very poor sound implementations.
JavaCPC works well on Mac OS-X.
But Nurgle is already researching this phenomene.

About this poll:
- JavaCPC will also have other nice styles
- some "Synthetica" styles are full licensed and I have the key for them.
  (All styles which are allowed for freeware applications)
- I don't vote here because I want your neutral opinion.
- The commercial styles are the first 6 styles from this webpage: http://www.javasoft.de/jsf/public/products/synthetica/themes
  (The first here is standard style and is also allowed for free)

[Gryzor]

Geez, and they charge for what is actually a different color scheme??!

[Devilmarkus]

Well... Thanks for donating

Donated money: 0,00€

Anyway... Will release it ASAP and as soon as I am motivated...

[Gryzor]

Hey, I thought that after all you weren't looking for donations? Maybe my mind is playing tricks, but I thought (maybe a discussion we had?) that you weren't going for the full version after all...

I would donate if you reconsidered!

[Devilmarkus]

No worries about.
I removed all "Synthetica" styles.
