Creating a Tip Jar on WordPress with Paypal

I’ve been curious to know how to setup the equivalent of a Tip Jar on my website. Just for the fun of it. I finally got to it, and I thought I should share the wealth by writing this simple tutorial on how to create a Tip Jar using your existing PayPal account.

  1. Go to http://www.paypal.com and login to your account (Sign up for one if you don’t have one)
  2. Click on ‘Merchant Tools’
  3. Find the link to ‘Donations’ at the right side by scrolling down a little (or do a search for Donations).
  4. Fill out the necessary information and click on ‘Create Button Now’
  5. You then copy it to your website, and hope for some more traffic!
  6. Don’t forget to leave a tip by clicking on my ‘Make a Donation’ button to see if my setup works and help improve my site (Ha ha!).

My Website (Version 2.2)

Here is the new design of the website. I am still working on it and so I hope most of the stuff is working correctly. I am going to change a lot of the stuff around and so don’t get too comfortable. I need major feedbacks from everybody because I am not sure about the new menu thing. J’l'ai changer pour toi John!!! Est-ce que c’est pour le mieux ? Anyways, I hope you guys like it.

To leave comments, just click on the small ‘comment’ link at the bottom of THIS post.

I am also thinking of introducing a bilingual option to the site, but HEY I am writing a masters thesis at the same time… Hehehe In the meantime, practice your english!!! Oh and the photoblog is still coming up. How do you like the new beardcam comments ? I’m off to watch some CYE a little bit more. Everybody should get into that show, it is hilarious!!

A New Design for my Webpage

There it is. The new design for the webpage.

I still have to work out some details like the fonts are not perfect and some of the headers are not the way I would like them to be, but overall it’s great. I went for a smaller size for Header and Eddie, and people who still have a smaller screen. I really like this new design and am trying to not use tables at all so that the download speed is faster and it complies to the new standard in web design.

It sucks though because I just erased all of my previous posts by reinstalling pmachine… I guess now I have a clean — Brand new! — blog. We’ll see how it goes. I will try and change a lot of the preferences this time because I had complaints on the way the forms looked for comments and all that. I’ll try to keep it clean.

So for now, most of the section on this page has been erased and built from scratch so I don’t have as much as I used to have, but I will add some more tomorrow during the day. So if I had a link that you liked, then do not worry it will come back! Yes, I am thinking about the link for Leslie’s poem about Bush, the link to Phyloworld and all that. Oh and the pictures are coming VERY soon.
