    Wow.

    It's one of those "why didn't I think of that" ideas.

      that's a brilliant idea a fine example of a light bulb moment
      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

        Much better idea than Ron Levy's miscropayments that failed terribly.

            Did you guys see screen savers? It'sa Great $$$ making idea, but shitty deal for the gamers. From what I hear the cost of the games will remain the same, if not more + the micro transactions for upgrades etc.

                    However this is a very good idea, as long as it's easy for 12 year old Brian to pay 25 cents without Dad's credit card being typed in over the interweb full of hackers.
