Wingart
shadow boxer
The Finger Painter & Master Ranter
in Babylon 5
This may seem a little mean spirited, and perhaps it is, but I have the greater good in mind.
I'd like those of you who have wingart and a few extra dollars... to pay for the wingart I built for you.
Five bucks for perhaps One Hundred Bucks worth of work.
Donate it to Firstones.
And in future, I'll do Wingart for those who want it, but I'll expect you to either put in some hours I can measure here at Firstones or make a paypal payment of Five bucks.
Paying for it will also almost guarantee your fighter appears in the new comic....
Sorry to get ruthless my friends but I want FO to survive, perhaps in future I can do it for free again... but for now... lets stick together and pay our dues

oh well...
I guess thats more reasons to formalise Firstones and get some sort of fiscal body organised
Thats a tad bit of, pardon the expression, "Indian Giving" (no offense to the Native Americans).
Technically speaking, when you created mine, you said it was free. Now you ambush me after the fact with this demand for payment.
A sour note in the least. I don't fall for guilt tactics, just so you know in the future.
But $5 is do-able [b][i]where FO is concerned[/i][/b], so I just need to know how to get it to the FO fund successfully.

Jack is right. It's "Indian giving" in the worst way. It's bad taste, not to mention rather insulting, to resort to backtracking on a free gift--that you [i]offered[/i] to create--in order to get people to ante up for FirstOnes.

for one I havent insisted...
two, I said only those who can cough up, and cough up easily... I'm not here to pillage the people who cant afford it.
Forget I said it...
Just dont weep on my shoulder if we go under...

I didn's say you insisted...but even simply asking is a bit...hmmm..."tacky" I guess is the right word.
I understand WHY you asked, but truthfully, I'd rather see FirstOnes go under than try to get funds through questionable methods.
There are plenty of other ways to get people to donate. Trying to get people to feel guilty isn't a good way to do so.
Hey, Sanfam: does the PayPal donation still work, or are there problems with it?

What we COULD do is send it to our company's Paypal account and you just reference "Firstones.Com" in it. That way, I can apply it.
