I'm not sure, but when I took it to the currency exchange window, they said the only thing they could give me for it was three pound of dryer lint or a roll of aluminum slugs. :- /

No, but mailing me sacks and sacks of money works pretty decent and is probably less likely to cause carpal tunnel syndrome.

See, if I had money, I would have gone straight for that idea. But unfortunately, I'm one of the people who's looking for a job, not one of the people who's moving.

Seriously, though, the site's not going to go down or anything, is it? Because if it were, I could find some money. I mean, since the Strip Creator has become more important to me than eating. Have you investigated other methods of raising funds (Cafe' Press, PayPal, this newfangled "Amazon Honor System" thingy)?

I wouldn't worry just yet. We're looking into alternatives to begging, as it's not really a viable long term solution. We could probably get a few bucks out of people up front, which would be helpful in the short term, but isn't exactly a sustainable revenue stream. The bills, they keep on coming. Donations -- understandably -- tend to dry up fairly quickly.

Something people can do to help is spread the strip creator around as much as they can. If we get enough traffic I can possibly get our host to pay us a lot of money to go away.
