Hello I was playing on a privet WoW server and it hit me. FG2 needs a donation button so anyone that wants to help out can that way the FG team can produce stuff at a better quality and speed (Not saying the quality isnt great or anything cause it is.)
But there is a lot of good that can come from donations and it would alow the FG team to put special stuff out and do stuff like give-a-ways and other promotional stuff.

But hey its just a idea though i would throw it out there.

The issue is that those private servers, give you benefits for your donations 99% of the time, so FG already has that. Go buy some modules or something.

"Go buy modules" is probably the answer here, for anyone dying to throw money at the FG guys (or associated third-party developers *cough*)

Have rattled the charity can around "free upgrade" time after prompting from one or two keen supporters. You'll be surprised to learn I got.... one or two donations ! With any product that operates commercially, I suspect the donation model just doesn't work very well - people have already paid some money, and have different expectations to a freemium model.

So yeah, spend that money on modules - it sends money to Smiteworks, the publishers (via Smiteworks, which validates there working relationship) and any third-party developer involved. All three go towards encouraging the growth of Fantasy Grounds, it's ecosystem and ongoing development.
