I am a budding new Internet Marketer and I have no money.

But that doesn’t mean I can’t help… My forum is just in it’s infancy but you can see how I am helping bbPress.org round up some money to continue it’s work.

http://forums.seocoalition.com

I have included in the left hand side a ChipIn.com widget. I will try to raise $500 dollars for bbPress.org and see if we can get _ck_ some extra cash to keep the process going.

I don’t know if this is going to work but I am willing to try. I think that anyone using this free product should give something back.

I am putting the code for the widget below and you can use it on your sites or what have you to help out. If you need different sizes, let me know and I will see what I can do.

Alternatively if you don’t trust me, go to ChipIn.com and create your own widget to help out the cause!

I reformatted the code so it looks pretty:

<object width="120" height="240">

<param name="movie" value="http://widget.chipin.com/widget/id/c7cf54857a3ba44d" />

</param>

<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" />

</param>

<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />

</param>

<param name="event_title" value="Help%20bbPress" />

</param>

<param name="event_desc" value="bbPress.org%20is%20powered%20by%20the%20same%20poeple%20that%20power%20WordPress.%20The%20forum%20you%20see%20here%20is%20powered%20by%20bbPress.%20They%20need%20your%20help%2C%20please%20give%21" />

Keep in mind I’m an independent plugin developer and not directly associated with bbPress.org or Automattic.com

I just moderate here to help out. bbPress.org is part of Automattic.com and doesn’t actually need donations of money, Sam and Michael are paid employees.

But code contributions are tremendously appreciated. A quality bug report or code contribution on http://trac.bbpress.org goes a long way to helping bbPress.

(If you’d like to donate to me specifically for my plugin development, you can help me towards a replacement monitor here.)

Well the money will be awarded to the needs of bbPress.org
