If you can't make it then please watch for other ways to donate.
And big thanks to the volunteers who are taking money, details etc and handing out Trust forms.

I have no idea what my PayPal account details are and am not that keen to setup another account. Is there a way we can donate from afar directly using credit/debit card? Is the pixel purchase done direct or through PayPal as well?

Hi Deryck,
See
http://www.saverdfc.com/blog/pledges/
If you want to buy some pixels by donating to the trust bank account, then once I have recieved confirmation of your donation from the Trust (if anyone from the trust is reading this please PM me as I need to chat about offline payments) I can upload the image of your choice manually.

Thanks for that. Unfortunately my credit union won't transfer money to an overseas bank. Looks like I need to setup a new PayPal account.

So then, time is passing by, has anyone got any idea how well we're doing towards this £250k (or £110k) target? There appears to be a lot of activity, but it would be nice to know how well (or not) the campaign is doing? I'm kinda nosey like that

I said to you at the time Wasteman that you may have been right, but I didn't want to risk it. As it turns out you are right, now that an actual announcement has been made on the matter it can be left on here.

Does that mean the pledge I made last Monday for a ST no longer stands?
I'm also a little concerned about giving over my c card details over the phone, could they be used in a fraudulent way?
And does anyone know where we currently are regarding running total of monies raised - obviously very approximately.

Just trawled through this thread and found the answer to my first question re 'donation' and ST :oops:
Still like to find out more re possibilty of fraud and totals raised so far.
