The web site has some buttons for setting up a shop and uploading the artwork. It's pretty simple.

While I think buying gifts is a good idea, I don't see the harm in having a donate button so that people can make direct donations. Am I right in thinking the more popular the language the more maintenance required? The more people could donate the more progress could be achieved.

Some time ago, I made a quick-n-dirty povray model of D man: https://github.com/quickfur/dmascot You can see some sample renders here: http://eusebeia.dyndns.org/~hsteoh/tmp/mascot.png But it didn't seem to have attracted much attention.

Look at dlang.org. That logo in the top-left is fairly new. It didn't exist when digitalmars.com was D's main website.

Am I right in thinking the more popular the language the more maintenance required? The more people could donate the more progress could be achieved. It is possible to donate via http://flattr.com, and it supports GitHub repositories. Those to whom you donate will eventually need to register on flattr to get donations, so it might be a good idea to notify them :) |
