I like the Valentine hearts fundraiser. Why not add some others through the year? Within reason.....

I can think of all sorts of ideas. But it's true, spread it out. Maybe even a few times a year.

5. What am I missing? You just buy a star and then give it to them.

Now if your asking if you can buy a star but credit it to someone else so they become a "Star" member, then no, I'm pretty sure no.

And sadly, the answer seems to be no. Darn it. Oh well. I can give hearts.

8. It would be something nice that we could do for each other at any time.

We wouldn't have to wait for a special time of the year.
And DU would get more income, so it's a win-win.



Okay Admins, where are you?

But I'm the last person to ask when it comes to anything that has to do with computers and technology.

12. There was a fundraiser here last year when we could buy a Star for another DUer

It would be nice if the admins did this again. And it is true that we used to be able to buy a Star for someone else here, but it's been quite awhile. I also wish we still could.
