    I was thinking gamerenders could get even more people to donate if we had a new way to donate. We have paypal but what if we added cash in an envelope like www.gamewallpapers.com. This would probly get more people. Now people wont have to use their credit card or create a paypal account. Here is what it also says for cash in an envelope : Pay by sending money (bills) in an envelope. This option will create a letter for you to print and send to us along with the registration fee. Further instructions are included in the letter.

    So what do you think?

    paypal can be opened with a savings account... so its not a huge deal to get setup with a bank account. I had a savings account at like 10 and I doubt anyone here is under the age of 10... and if they are they probably arent interested in a premium account.

    the reason that they use paypal is because its faster and more secure than mailing stuff.

    Not everyone lives in the UK.. bad for americans. ALSO, mail is not guarenteed to be received by the person intended.. and GR can't be held responsible. Online paying - 99% sure is what it stays at.

    This is far more insecure. Someone in my own country asked me to make a logo, i did (anti-ripped+low quality) and he send the money via mail, i never got it and he was screaming that he did and wanted his logo etc.

    Loving this idea, but just a little bit troublesome as well.

    thats a bad idea because if they send the money
    1). it could get lost in the post
    2). theres no proof you sent it
    3). ROYAL MAIL ARE BENDERS (in england nehoo)

    sling shot has it right, you cant trust royal mail (the english post services) not at the moment anyway. This is a bad idea. like someone said almost every1 has a savings account and if you dont get one, any one of age can get one. You can link them up to a paypal account. Also people that dont live in the uk will have more trouble sending it.
