Dear youplayers,
the new 2008 fundraising campaing has started. From now on, all donations will be considered as 2008 contibutions.
As you know, running the site is not free (server and bandwidth have a cost), and we are asking you to help us cover these costs.
In 2007 your contributions has covered 98.8% of the total costs incurred!
Please help us again to keep our site alive, free, with no advertising, active and independent also in 2008.
Many thanks,
your webmasters.
I would like to suggest a paypal site for donation be made accesable in english for our language limited players. It was alot of trouble last year and I still don't know how my contribution made it thru.
Nick,
for these cases, those few that don't speak Italian at all (the 90%), could be a good thing to let them know the e-mail to use for the payment, or find a way to have a payment page in english.
Just my 2 cents.

I have not put in my VISA number yet but I think the Paypal page can be english if you alter the URL. When you click on the paypal US dollar link; you are directed to this page with this URL: (Session is followed by some encrypted string)
https://www.paypal.com/
it/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=
If you change the
it to
en and hit the enter key on the keyboard; you get redirect to an English page.
https://www.paypal.com/en/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=
If the webmasters can kindly verify that this is the correct link to contribute to YouPlayIt; it will be greatly appreciated. That should satisfy the non Italian speaking players.
I have the same issue when I click on the English link to make a payment.
